About this map

The De Soto National Forest dominates this section of South Mississippi, where the winding course of Black Creek carves through the timberland. Settlement is concentrated along the Illinois Central Gulf Railroad corridor, which connects the small communities of Brooklyn, Rosine, and Currie. The map reveals a landscape defined by both conservation and extraction, as the southern border features the Maxie Gas Field and the central area includes the Forrest County Agricultural Sch. Significant for family historians, the sheet includes remote rural sites like Pleasant Hill Cem, Granny Bounds Cem, and Anderson Cem. Numerous water bodies, including Ashe Lake, Lake Janney, and Sportsmans Lake, suggest a terrain shaped by localized drainages and creek basins like Pearces Mill Creek and Granny Creek.
