1964 Map of Ovett

Evidence of local industry and community life is scattered throughout the landscape, from the Oil Wells found in the western reaches to the Gravel Pit operations near the Jones and Perry county line. Genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped, such as Beech Cem and Lancaster Cem, alongside rural congregations like Piney Grove Ch and Jesus Name Ch. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of branches and creeks, such as Dry Prong Buck Creek and Sweetwater Creek, reflecting the wet bottomlands of southern Mississippi.
