Encompassing periods of settlement and war, this informative local history provides insight into the early years of Newton County, Mississippi, and the lives of its citizens. Exploring the county's local events, religious denominations, and early governmental systems, this work draws upon a wealth of personal accounts as well as federal, state, and county records. History of Newton County from 1834-1894 includes illustrations of important buildings and influential people, among them a courthouse, churches, and the editor of the first county newspaper. Formed in the shape of a square, Newton County, named after English scientist and philosopher Sir Isaac Newton, measures approximately 576 square miles. This small region once made up the southern portion of the much larger Neshoba County, but when the citizens of the area decided they wanted their own county, the local legislature granted their wish. This historical journey through the county covers its establishment, the first railroad, the Civil War period, and Reconstruction.
