1958 Map of Woodville

About this map

The Woodville area of southwestern Mississippi is defined by its complex network of waterways, where the Homochitto River and Buffalo River wind through the northern reaches of the Adams Co Wilkinson Co boundary. In the late 1950s, this landscape was characterized by numerous rural religious and educational centers, such as Macedonia Sch, St Peters Ch, and Ashwood Ch, reflecting a deeply rooted community structure. Many of these sites, along with family and local burial grounds like Wilkinson Cem and Bowling Green Cem, provide critical touchpoints for genealogical research in this part of Wilkinson County.
