Re: Lacy's Fort

Apparently Biloxi, Mississippi also derives it’s name from the Biloxi people.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biloxi, ... lonial_era
The name of Biloxi in French was Bilocci, a transliteration of the term for the local Native American tribe in their language. Labeled along with "Fort Maurepas"[6] on maps dated circa year 1710/1725, the name was sometimes used in English as "Fort Bilocci".[7][8]
