ALCORN COUNTY MISSISSIPPI

Created on April 15, 1870, from Tippah & Tishomingo counties. Alcorn County was named in honor of Gov. James L. Alcorn, the first chief executive of the State chosen under the constitution of 1869.

We'll be doing the best we can to create a website that you will find helpful, useful and meaningful as you trace the trails of your ancestors through Alcorn County until a permanent host can be found. If your ancestor left a footprint in this county we'll do what we can to help you find them. We regret that we can't do any individual research for you but we'll do everything possible to add information to this site that will help.

Being a brand new website we are in need of
Mississippi County Host.
Its challenging, very rewarding, and its a great group to work with
Please check our Volunteer Information Page
If interested please contact Kim Torp

If you can't be a County Host that's okay, you can still be a great deal of help. We need volunteers who will ferret out Alcorn County History of any kind. People who will find interesting documents to transcribe and email to me. We are looking for all the regular information such as Biographies, Deaths, Births and Marriages and Obituaries. There will be the native Indian history of the area that will be of interest to a lot of people. Probably of the greatest importance would be the Pioneer Families of Alcorn County Mississippi. There is a special section on this website for the pioneer folks who paved the way and made the county what it is today. This is the type of information that will set this County Web Page apart from most others.
