Finding a lot on the Philadelphia GIS map
Parcel maps here are usually run by the county, not the town, so for Philadelphia the go-to is the Neshoba County ArcGIS parcel map.
The viewer Neshoba County publishes
Parcels around Union appear on the Neshoba County ArcGIS parcel map, which opens without registering. In and around Union, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, then pick the result to center the map on it. Closer to Bogue Chitto, the parcel card typically gives the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, a parcel ID and often a sale date.
What the map can't tell you
Parcel lines are drawn for taxes, not measured on the ground, so the edge of a yard near Bogue Chitto may sit several feet off the line on screen. With a lot near Bogue Chitto, owner names and values update on a schedule, so a deed recorded last month may not show yet.
How land is described here
Mississippi is laid out under the Public Land Survey System, so deeds around Union reference sections and townships. A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though sections near Union can be irregular. Write down the legal description for the tract near Union for any title or survey request.
