1986 Map of Orvisburg

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Orvisburg serves as the primary focal point in this Pearl River County landscape, reflecting the rural character of southern Mississippi during the mid-1980s. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the prominent West Hobolochitto Creek and the curiously named Big Hell Creek. The topography is marked by numerous drainage basins and wetland features like Green Brake, which influenced the placement of local homesteads and roads. Industrial activity is indicated by a Gravel Pit located in the western portion of the quadrangle, while the local geography is anchored by water bodies such as Orvisburg Lake. The map illustrates a region where life was closely tied to the land and its waterways, with many small creeks like White Sand Creek and Hickory Creek carving through the terrain.
