2018 Map of Baxterville

About this map

Baxterville sits at the heart of this landscape where the borders of Lamar and Pearl River counties meet. This region is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the winding Little Black Cr and Wolf Cr, which drain into specialized wetland features like Cypress Reed Brake and Burnt Reed Brake. The settlement pattern follows older transit corridors like the Purvis to Baxterville Rd, while the presence of Tatum Salt Dome Rd hints at the area's subterranean geological significance. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of the Baxterville Cem and Myrtle Grove Cem. Further south, the map captures the western outskirts of Lumberton, showing how the local economy and infrastructure were traditionally tied to the drainage basins of the W Hobolochitto Cr and the Middle Fork Cr.
