These are only a few of the many historic sites of Amite County.  They were chosen because they were a) important places mentioned in my master's research and b) I happened to have photographs of them.
 

The Little Red School House in Liberty.
This site did not figure in my research, but my Great-Grandmother Amelia Cunningham Payne was one of the many people educated here.

Ebenezer Baptist Church - the oldest active Baptist congregation in Mississippi.
Most of the women profiled in the Antebellum section of my paper worshipped here.

 
Unity Presbyterian Church
The Gayden-Batchelor-Buckholtz-Street families profiled in my paper were among the founding members of this congregation.
