HISTORY
In 1937, the tract of land known as Riverside, bordered on the north and east by the Amite River as it flows over the Louisiana line, changed hands from a local Louisiana businessman to an attorney, Fred Anderson, Jr. in Gloster, Mississippi for a purchase price of $18,750. Three years later, he married and transferred the tract to his wife Polly who owned it until her death in 1988. The land then passed to her daughters, Polly Chambers and Mary Petty, who transferred the land into an LLC in 2012. Since Polly’s death in 2020, Riverside is owned by Mary Petty and Polly’s daughters, Polly Douglas and Drake.
GRAVEL

RIVERSIDE contains abundant gravel resources spread across the entire property with geological core data to support. 75 acres were utilized in a gravel mining operation for several years.


TIMBER
As per the 2020 appraisal calculations, approximately 2,409 acres are growing timber with a total estimated value of $1.74 million.

OIL & GAS
The property is not currently under an oil and gas lease. An evaluation conducted by trend expert, Amelia Resources LLC, confirms approximately 5 million barrels of recoverable oil in the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale (TMS) reservoir. At $60 per barrel of oil, potential income could range from $1-70 million with drilling in the future.
