2024 Map of Sanford

About this map

Okatoma Creek and the Bouie River converge in this Mississippi landscape, which sits at the jurisdictional intersection of Covington, Jones, Lamar, and Forrest Counties. The settlement of Sanford serves as a northern anchor, while the northern fringes of Hattiesburg emerge in the southeast corner near Rawls Springs. The terrain is defined by a dense network of local drainages like Shelton Creek and McCall Creek, which likely dictated the placement of the numerous family-named cemeteries and rural roads that crisscross the region.
