2020 Map of Lucedale

About this map

The George County Courthouse serves as the central anchor of Lucedale, where a grid of streets like Main St and Oak St meets a web of rural roads named for established local families. To the south, the community of Evanston sits near the crossing of Depot Creek, illustrating the historical reliance on these small watercourses. This modern survey documents a landscape where agricultural heritage and civic infrastructure coexist, seen in the numerous family burial grounds and community cemeteries scattered throughout the county, including the Banyard Family Cem and Taylor Cem. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages such as Beaverdam Creek and Denny Mill Creek, which flow through the piney woods of southeastern Mississippi. Notable regional aviation is represented by Bird Nest Airport in the northeast, while the southern reaches are marked by the New Antioch Cem and Gardner Cem.
