About this map

Orvisburg and the surrounding piney woods of southern Mississippi are defined by a dense network of watercourses and family-named roads. The settlement is centered near Orvisburg Lake, with the Orvisburg Cem located just to the east. This 2015 survey reveals a landscape of working timberlands and rural homesteads, where the drainages of Wolf Cr and Little Hell Cr dictate the local geography. Numerous small tributaries like White Sand Cr and Hickory Cr feed into the larger system of W Hobolochitto Cr.

A network of local connectors such as Baxterville Rd, Spring Hill Rd, and Stanford Lake Rd links the scattered residences of the region. The map captures the distinct character of local landownership through named lanes like Charles Byrd Rd, Ott Stanford Rd, and Bill Pardue Rd. Unique modern features, such as Pet Cemetery Ln, appear alongside established natural landmarks like Beaverdam Cr and Boggy Br.
