Oktibbeha County is a community closely connected to its past, with
landmarks coloring its landscape and illustrating its history to a
revolving population of students and teachers at Mississippi State
University. Beyond the classrooms and corridors is a small,
Southern community with a rich and varied history, shaped by the
great legacy of the Choctaw Indians, the plantation owners of the
nineteenth
century, the farmers who struggled through the Great Depression,
and the educators who sought to develop an institution of higher
learning for the youth of Mississippi. Captured within these pages
are the memories of Oktibbeha County as it once was, before America
dove headfirst into an era of change and progress. Seen are simpler
times, when policemen could place telephone calls from a light pole
in the middle of town, and stores closed at noon on Wednesdays so
that the local businessmen might spend the afternoon fishing
together. The treasured
photographs of days gone by provide residents of Oktibbeha County,
as well as visitors to the area, with a refreshing glimpse of life
in the old days. Included are the countyas earliest schools, homes,
and churches, as well as the residents who studied, lived, and
prayed in them.
