About Vancleave, Mississippi

Vancleave is a community of 5,592 people in Jackson County, set on a rise above the Bluff Creek valley to its south. A history of Mississippi published in 1906 described it as a village in the south-central part of the county, 14 miles northwest of the county seat at Pascagoula, with a post office that could issue money orders.

In the first years of the twentieth century the village grew quickly. It had 76 people in 1900, and by 1906 its population had reached 500. Today the census place runs south as far as the mouth of Bluff Creek and reaches east to Ward Bayou and the Pascagoula River.
