About this map

De Soto National Forest dominates much of this Harrison County landscape, where the Bilox River and the Little Biloxi River converge. The terrain is a network of small drainages and canals, including Spring Branch and the Hickman Road Canal, shaping the rural character of the region. Near the southern edge, the settlement of Lyman sits adjacent to a Landing Field and the Lyman Cem, while the northern reaches include the community of Hovey. This survey captures a moment when the regional economy still relied on timber and land resources, as evidenced by the Gravel Pit and the pervasive forest boundaries. Local history is deeply rooted in the scattered country churches and family-named cemeteries, such as St Ann Ch and Wedgeworth Cem, which served the small communities tucked away along the winding paths of Wortham Road and Lizana Road.
