2020 Map of Whites

About this map

Steen Creek and Mountain Cr carve through the landscape of central Mississippi where Hinds Co, Rankin Co, Copiah Co, and Simpson Co meet. This area, largely defined by its rural settlements like Whites and Alonzo, reflects a community deeply tied to its local history through a series of family and community burial grounds. These include the Sinai Cem in the north and Antioch Cem near the southern border, providing vital markers for genealogical research in this multi-county region. The Pearl River snakes along the southwestern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a natural boundary while drainage systems like Rocky Cr and Bear Cr feed into the broader basin. This 2020 survey documents the persisting rural character of the region, where older road systems like Old Enochs Rd and Stamps Quarters still define local movement across the county lines.
