About this map

The town of Wesson sits at the heart of this survey, straddling the line between Copiah and Lincoln counties. This area of South Central Mississippi is defined by the headwaters of several drainage systems, including Bayou Pierre and Little Bahala Cr, which carve a rolling landscape of ridges and creek bottoms. The town is a concentrated center of activity, featuring the Copiah-Lincoln Community Coll campus and residential streets such as Grove St and Cotton St.

To the north, the smaller community of Beauregard maintains its own identity near Saint Peter Rock Cem and Beauregard Cem. The map reveals a dense network of family-named roads, including Lott Smith Rd and Williams Rd, that connect rural outposts like New Sight and Montgomery. Numerous historic burial grounds like Sylvarena Cem and Rocky Hill Cem are scattered throughout the countryside, marking the long-established social fabric of these timber and agricultural lands.
