5 Star Stories: Senatobia, Mississippi, a thriving and growing community
5 Star Stories: Senatobia, Mississippi By Kym Clark | May 4, 2021 at 9:05 PM CDT - Updated May 4 at 11:02 PM
SENATOBIA, Miss (WMC) - Just off Interstate 55 sits the seat of Tate County, Mississippi, a bustling town of 8,000 where for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years, many a traveler found respite on their journey.
“We’re the only Senatobia in the whole wide world. There’s not even a little crossroads named Senatobia, not even a small little town named Senatobia,” said Main Street Director Jamie Sowell.
It was 1834 when an early settler purchased land from the Chickasaw Nation for $1.25 an acre. That land later became the town of Senatobia. The name Senatobia is derived from a native word which means white sycamore, which is also a symbol of rest for the weary.
