About this map

The Yockanookany River and Pearl River converge in this central Mississippi landscape, shaping a network of sloughs and bottomlands including Black Lake and Duck Pond Slough. The city of Carthage serves as a regional anchor, with infrastructure like the Leake County Airfield and Jordan High School reflecting mid-century growth. Further south, the Gulf Mobile and Ohio Railroad cuts through the timberlands of the Bienville National Forest, connecting small communities such as Lena and Tuscola.
