1982 Map of Harleston

About this map

The settlement of Old Americus lies near the boundary of George and Jackson Counties, situated along the complex drainage system of the Pascagoula River State Wildlife Management Area. This 1982 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its waterways and small rural communities, including Harleston, Wade, and Hurley. The presence of numerous family-named burial grounds like Steede Cem and Carter Cem, alongside rural landmarks such as Johnson Chapel and Good Hope Ch, provides significant data for genealogical research in this part of Mississippi. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly swampy, dominated by the Black Creek and Honey Island Slough systems. This map captures the region's character through its transition from upland settlements to the riverine bottomlands, featuring points like Parkers Island and Straw Island within the wildlife management boundaries.
