About this map

Savannah and Rowlands anchor this 2015 survey of the southern Mississippi piney woods, where small communities are defined by a network of creeks and timber access roads. The landscape is characterized by the branching drainages of Redfish Cr, Catahoula Cr, and Crane Cr, which feed into the larger watershed near the Pearl River Co Hancock Co boundary. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Steep Hollow Cem and Anner Cem provides specific points of interest for family research in these rural settlements.

Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is visible in features like the Cuevas Gravel Pit Rd and the scattered settlement at Anner. The map traces numerous family-named routes such as Mrs Rubys Ln, Emile Davis, and Berty Bazor Rd, reflecting the generational footprint of land ownership in this portion of the coastal plain. Significant water features including Gilberts Lake and Pen Br are mapped in detail, showing the intricate hydrology of the region.
