2000 Map of Whites Crossing

About this map

The town of Wiggins serves as the focal point for this Stone County landscape, where the residential grid meets the expanding waters of the Flint Creek Reservoir. To the east, the De Soto National Forest preserves a thicket of wetlands and drainages including Old Cypress Creek and Boggy Branch. The rural character of the area is defined by its numerous community landmarks, such as Stone Sch and Morning Star Ch, which anchored the local social fabric at the turn of the 21st century. Farther south, the terrain follows the winding path of Red Creek, where Sard Ridge Lake and the City Bridge mark important local crossings. The presence of multiple family-named burial sites, including Lott-Hickman Cem and Whites Cem, provides significant data for genealogists tracing the established lineages of this portion of southern Mississippi.
