Most people think of the Mississippi delta as being the Mississippi River delta. But the state of Mississippi’s Delta region is the northwestern part of the state. All the little creeks and rivers flowing into the Mississippi River get sluggish and swampy in delta-like conditions. “The Delta” is just south of Memphis and north of Vicksburg.

You have a great “about page” !!!

Wow. I had no idea. My granddad was born in Panola County, right south of Memphis.

It now seems a lot more likely to me, that I might have a familial connection to these people.

Thank you!
