2018 Map of Whitfield

About this map

Monterey and the surrounding Rankin County countryside appear here in a landscape defined by the winding tributaries of Richland Creek. This part of Mississippi showcases a dense network of local landmarks important to family history, with several burial grounds including New Hope Cem and Jerusalem Cem dotting the hills. The community of Florence is anchored by Wesley College, while the northeastern corner shows the residential growth near Brandon. In the north, Pearl and Pearson sit near Lake Patterson, reflecting the suburban expansion out of the state capital region. The terrain is further segmented by numerous waterways such as Terrapin Skin Cr, Butler Cr, and Steepbank Cr, which carve through the land and influenced the placement of rural roads like Ebenezer Rd and Monterey Rd.
