• Holmesville,_Mississippi abstract "Holmesville was named December 11, 1816 in honor of Major Andrew Hunter Holmes by commissioners who were appointed to select a spot for the seat of justice in the geographical center of the newly formed Pike County. This was the center of trade and business for the County for many years. In 1857 the Illinois Central Railroad was built 9 miles west bypassing Holmesville and the more populated area of the County. This shifted the population from the river town of Holmesville to the new railroad towns of Magnolia, Summit, and Osyka. In 1873 Magnolia was voted in as the new county seat and in 1876 a new courthouse was erected. In 1881 the newly built courthouse was destroyed by fire and most records of Holmesville and Pike County were lost. Within 20 years most business' moved out of Holmesville and the people followed. An effort was made to maintain the buildings in Holmesville but one by one they were torn down or left to decay. Few old structures remain.Closely clustered around Holmesville, who figured in its conception and its birth were, David McGraw, Gabriel Allen, C. Brent, R. Hardley, John Smith, Peter Quin, John Kaigler, Anthony Perryman, Benjamin Bagley, William Love, Henry Ragland, Hans Hamilton, Josiah Martin, David Morgan, James Y. McNabb, David Cleveland, Jeremiah Williams, Phillip and Joseph Catchings, J. Peck, Jonathan Catchings, John Felder, David Winborne, John Magee, Solomon Causey, David Dixon, Dr. Wiley P. Harris and Joseph Thornhill. In January, 1816, J.Y. McNabb was elected clerk of the Inferior and Superior Courts, and David Cleveland was elected sheriff, and they entered into bond on the 29th day of January, 1816. In August, 1817, Laban Bacot was sheriff, under the new State regime. In the fall election of 1818, Henry Quin was elected clerk and Laban Bacot sheriff. Holmesville became a great resort, and through the summer months was often crowded with people seeking rest and relief from the unhealthful atmosphere of New Orleans and the dangers of cholera and yellow fever which often prevailed there. Its healthfulness, picturesque scenery, pure water, facilities for outdoor sports and quiet pleasures, made it a desirable place for a summer vacation.".
