Natchesium or Natchez is a Roman Catholic Diocese. As it is a titular see, it is not an active diocese. The diocese originally was the Catholic diocese for the state of Mississippi - which was headquartered in Natchez.
The see city was relocated to Jackson. After the name of the diocese was changed to the Diocese of Jackson, the Diocese of Natchez became a titular see.
