Notes
  • Significance: The history of the town of Memphis is typical of that of many towns along the Tombigbee River which were bypassed by the railroads. Having risen during the economic prosperity in the antebellum South, the fortunes of these towns deteriorated when river traffic and cotton production declined after the Civil War.
  • Survey number: HABS AL-869
