2012 Map of Bond Pond

About this map

Bluff Cr and its many tributaries, including Sandy Run and Bridge Cr, dominate this landscape north of Wiggins. This 2012 survey illustrates a region defined by its water systems and family-linked geography, where the southern reaches of the De Soto National Forest meet local homesteads. Several burial grounds, such as Taylor Cemetery and the Howard-Breland Cem, are scattered across the terrain, offering significant value for genealogists tracing South Mississippi families. The drainage patterns of Beaverdam Cr in the north and the larger Flint Creek Reservoir to the southwest reveal a low-lying environment where roads like Earl Breland Rd and Melvin Breland Rd follow the natural rises in the land. The presence of Bond Pond and the Cypress Creek Landing highlights the long-standing reliance on these waterways for both transport and local industry.
