     History
    This courthouse was erected by slaves before the Civil War. The bricks were all handmade. The rear addition was built in the mid 1930's, during the Depression.

    A new, much larger courthouse was finished in 1976 and covers a whole city block. Four or five pre civil war structures were torn down to make room for it. Fortunately, our beloved original courthouse still stands, and the bottom floor serves as a museum and an extensive library and archives.
