Roxie, Mississippi

Roxie is a town in Franklin County, Mississippi. The population was 569 at the 2000 census.

History

Roxie was founded in 1886 on a plot of farmland donated by John Quitman Graves, who was the County Supervisor and a former soldier in the Regimental Band of the 4th Volunteer Mississippi Regiment during the Civil War. The town was named in honor of Graves' newborn daughter 'Roxie'.

Roxie was incorporated in 1890.

The town was located at the crossroads of the Louisville, New Orleans and Texas Railway and the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad, and most of the early residents were employed by the railroads, or worked in the logging industry or in sawmills.

Roxie's children attended the Roxie School, whose motto was Home of the Tigers. In 1962, the high school portion of the school shut down, and all student from grades 9 to 12 were bussed to the new Franklin High School in Meadville. Roxie School continued for a few years after as an elementary school.
