History
in a Pecan Shell
Originally, Rocky Mound was a Black community
centered around a school in the late 1890s. A church was added sometime prior
to 1908. Rocky Mound never seems to have developed a town center but by the end
of WWII, the community had
added another church and a cemetery. It incorporated in the 1970s and by the 1980
census, Rocky Mound reported a population of 123 which has since decline to less
than 100 residents. | |
