2024 Map of Brown Town

About this map

Brown Town and the neighboring community of Pisgah sit at the intersection of several county lines where Mississippi meets Alabama. This modern 2024 landscape is defined by the winding course of the Escatawpa River in the southeast and the network of creeks that drain the local ridges, such as Islelet Creek and Pond Creek. The topography is marked by significant elevation changes along Mash Fork Ridge and Lott Fork Ridge, which helped shape the early road patterns of the region. Family names are preserved throughout the area in landmarks like Maples Cem and the Mount Pisgah Cem. Local history is further reflected in the naming of roads like Aaron Dueitt Rd and Herman Denmark Rd, while more functional historical markers like Cattle Gap remain visible on the modern survey.
