My Ocean Springs: 2007 in Pictures

The Martin family enjoys a sunny day at Marble Springs off Iberville Drive overlooking Fort Bayou. The historical marker at the park claims that Marble Springs was probably used by the Native American population prior to the arrival of European settlers, and between the 1850s and 1920s it was popular for its medicinal properties. Marble Springs was also known as Mineral Springs, and it was the best known nationally of Mississippi’s many mineral springs resorts.
