2012 Map of Terrys Creek

About this map

The Tickfaw River and its numerous tributaries, including Easley Br and Terrys Cr, define the drainage patterns of this rural Pike County landscape. This 2012 survey illustrates a region where family legacy is deeply rooted in the land, evidenced by the high density of small burial grounds such as Newman-Phillips Cem, Simpson-Raborn Cem, and McDaniel-McElveen Cem. The settlement at Terrys Creek serves as a central point in a network of country roads including Terrys Creek Rd and Old Mill Rd. Economic and recreational activity is noted in the southern portion of the quadrangle, where the Gillsburg Oil Field operates alongside the Osyka Springs Campground. Water features like Alford Lake and Ponchatoula Cr further characterize the terrain, providing a detailed look at the local geography of southern Mississippi.
