About this map

Savannah and Rowlands anchor this landscape along the border of Pearl River Co Hancock Co in southern Mississippi. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including Catahoula Creek, Redfish Creek, and Icigne Creek, which carve through the piney woods. Numerous family-named roads like Savannah Millard Rd, Otis Smith Rd, and McNeill McHenry Rd indicate a legacy of rural landownership and long-standing local homesteads.

Local history and genealogy are preserved at sites like Steep Hollow Cem and Anner Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the community's past. The landscape remains primarily rural, characterized by small water bodies such as Gilberts Lake and minor tributaries like Pen Branch. This 2024 survey documents the enduring physical and cultural geography of the region, from the gravel pits to the creeks that have shaped local life for generations.
