1993 Map of Logtown

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

The John C Stennis Space Center (NASA) dominates the northern reaches of this map, representing a significant federal footprint in Hancock County. To the south, the landscape is defined by the winding Pearl River and the expansive, waterlogged terrain of Devils Swamp. The settlement of Logtown is situated near the riverbanks, where the Logtown Cem and The Point Cem provide critical reference points for local genealogy. Farther south, the community of Pearlington anchors the corner of the sheet near Mulatto Bayou. The contrast between the high-tech NASA facility and the traditional riverine settlements highlights the mid-century evolution of the Gulf Coast. Researchers can trace land use patterns from the Waveland Gas Field to the Charles Murphy Sch, as well as numerous Flowing Wells that dot the low-lying coastal plains.
