Port was the first town settled by Europeans in what became north <a href="/wiki/Mississippi" title="Mississippi">Mississippi</a>. It was developed on the east bank of the <a href="/wiki/Tombigbee_River" title="Tombigbee River">Tombigbee River</a>, at a crossing of vital Indian trails. This had been a base of expeditions of French explorers <a href="/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Le_Moyne_de_Bienville" title="Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville">Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville</a> in 1736 and <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Fran%C3%A7ois_de_Rigaud,_Marquis_de_Vaudreuil-Cavagnal" class="mw-redirect" title="Pierre François de Rigaud, Marquis de Vaudreuil-Cavagnal">Vaudreuil</a> in 1752. </p><p>After the United States acquired the territory, it was first considered part of <a href="/wiki/Marion_County,_Alabama" title="Marion County, Alabama">Marion County</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Alabama_Territory" title="Alabama Territory">Alabama Territory</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The new demarcation lines of 1820-21 established a state boundary that allocated the town and related area to Mississippi. </p><p>The early U.S. government built a <a href="/wiki/Cotton_gin" title="Cotton gin">cotton gin</a> in 1801 at Cotton Gin Port as part of a "plan of civilization" for the local <a href="/wiki/Chickasaw" title="Chickasaw">Chickasaw</a>, whom it wanted to have adopt European-American customs. The settlement soon became recognized as a trading post for business with the Chickasaw. A road, <a href="/wiki/Gaines_Trace" title="Gaines Trace">Gaines Trace</a>, was built to the town in 1811 and 1812. This road ran from close to present-day <a href="/wiki/Muscle_Shoals,_Alabama" title="Muscle Shoals, Alabama">Muscle Shoals</a> on the <a href="/wiki/Tennessee_River" title="Tennessee River">Tennessee River</a> to Cotton Gin Port, where it crossed the Tombigbee. From there it continued south to <a href="/wiki/Fort_Stoddert" title="Fort Stoddert">Fort Stoddert</a>, Alabama. </p><p>As railroads were constructed in the region, the <a href="/wiki/Kansas_City,_Memphis_%26_Birmingham_Railroad" class="mw-redirect" title="Kansas City, Memphis & Birmingham Railroad">Kansas City, Memphis & Birmingham Railroad</a> bypassed Cotton Gin Port, and established a new railroad town at <a href="/wiki/Amory,_Mississippi" title="Amory, Mississippi">Amory, Mississippi</a>. In a pattern repeated in numerous other places, this bypass resulted in the older town being abandoned, as businesses and residents moved to have access to the railroad at Amory. </p><p>The ruins of the old town can still be found between the <a href="/wiki/Tenn-Tom_Waterway" class="mw-redirect" title="Tenn-Tom Waterway">Tenn-Tom Waterway</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Tombigbee_River" title="Tombigbee River">Tombigbee River</a>. Relics from the former settlement can be seen at the <a href="/wiki/Amory,_Mississippi" title="Amory, Mississippi">Amory</a> Municipal Museum. <a href="/wiki/Levi_Colbert" title="Levi Colbert">Levi Colbert</a>, a chief of the Chickasaw, is said to have lived on the bluff west of Cotton Gin Port, near a large spreading oak known as the council tree, a meeting place for tribal elders. The former cotton gin was built near here.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Cotton_Gin_Port,_Mississippi&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-nris-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-nris_1-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP">"National Register Information System"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/National_Register_of_Historic_Places" title="National Register of Historic Places">National Register of Historic Places</a></i>. <a href="/wiki/National_Park_Service" title="National Park Service">National Park Service</a>.
