Moss Point (Jackson County mill town on the Escatawpa)

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Mississippi · approx. 30.41, -88.53 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1890s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Escatawpa and Pascagoula rivers, near their junction above the Sound

What turns up: 1890s mill-town bottles, blob-top sodas and druggist glass, stoneware and cut-nail scatter in privy pits, plus household bottles in the low river banks and old sawmill fill.

Access: Gray area.

The navigable Escatawpa and Pascagoula river beds below the ordinary high-water mark are state-owned public trust where removing historic artifacts is restricted; the riverbanks and town uplands are usually private and need the landowner's permission, and state law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
