2013 Map of Yanush

About this map

The Old Choctaw Indian Council House anchors the southern portion of this region, serving as a significant cultural landmark near the Old Town Tuskahoma Cem. The landscape is dominated by the expansive waters of Sardis Lake, which defines the western terrain, while the smaller Lake Nanih Waiya sits further east. The settlement of Yanush lies at a crossroads in the north-central area, surrounded by a network of rural roads such as Anderson Creek Rd and Sardis Acres Rd. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural community shaped by its proximity to large water bodies and its indigenous heritage, with numerous family and community burial sites scattered throughout, including King Cem, Trowbridge Cem, and Cupco Cem. Waterways like Anderson Cr and Cedar Cr drain the higher elevations, creating a complex geography of ridges and valleys including Boggs Hollow.
