Pearl River County Memorial

Pearl River County Memorial

As Pearl River County continued to grow and prosper, its citizens decided that the original county courthouse was inadequate, and in 1918, construction of the present courthouse had begun. The $130,000 building was completed and occupied by the county in June, 1920. In 1926, the United Daughters of the Confederacy raised $8,500 to erect on the courthouse lawn a monument to Confederate and World War I Veterans and to the women of the South.
