Beautiful national cemetery. "In July 1862, Congress passed legislation giving the President of the United States the authority to purchase land for the establishment of cemeteries "for soldiers who shall die in the service of their country". The legislation effectively began the national cemetery system. In 1863, the Union Army abandoned the Confederate works and constructed a new fortification on the ground that became the cemetery site. A freedmen's community developed around the new Union fort. Four years later, this same site was selected for the establishment of the Fort Donelson National Cemetery and 670 Union soldiers were reinterred here. These soldiers (which included 512 unknowns) had been buried on the battlefield, in local cemeteries, in hospital cemeteries, and in nearby towns. These totals include five known and nine unknown soldiers from the United States Colored Troops. The high percentage of unknown soldiers can be attributed to the haste in cleaning up the battlefield and the fact that civil war soldiers did not carry government-issued identification. In 1867, Fort Donelson Cemetery was established as the final resting for Union soldiers and sailors initially buried in the Fort Donelson area."

One legendary business downtown that is deserving of a visit is Borroums Drug Store. It was founded…read morein 1865 by former CSA army surgeon A.J. Borroum. It is the oldest drug store in continuous operation in Mississippi. It is considered a "free museum" also because they have on display, Native American arrowheads, Civil War relics, and an authentic, working soda fountain. This business has been owned and operated by the Borroum family since its founding. I worked at Borroum's for a short time. I remember listening to Mrs. Camille recall an incident from her childhood of her and her father being held up at shotgun point. Mrs. Camille was the first certified female druggist in the state of Mississippi. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt0ugLzb2ws&sns=em Some locals can be seen talking about Corinth http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFmD_7VjXg0&sns=em Biggers Hardware opened in 1918 and has been a mainstay in the community ever since. The store's ownership is in the fourth generation of the Biggers family. December 7,1874, three to four members of the Jesse James-Cole Younger gang rode into Corinth with a plan to rob the Tishomingo Savings Institution. Refusing to cooperate, the bank owner, Alonzo Taylor, allegedly told them, "I'd rather be in hell than in Corinth without money". The outlaws escaped with $15,000. Back in the late 1980s I lived in a small rental house and the landlord claimed that the gang rode through a part of the land, even pointing to the general area in which they rode. Corinth native, Roscoe Turner is the only Mississippian in the National Aviation Hall of Fame in Dayton, Ohio. Turner is the only three-time winner of the Thompson Trophy Race. He also established the cross-country airplane speed record in 1925. One of Turner's planes is featured in the National Air and Space Museum at the Smithsonian Institute. There is a small airport named after Turner http://www.yelp.com/biz/roscoe-turner-airport-corinth In 1955, Elvis, Scotty and Bill were to have two performances in the Alcorn County Courthouse/Assembly hall. The shows were sponsored by the Corinth Junior Chamber of Commerce (Jaycees) to help raise funds for a playground. It is said there were insufficient ticket sales to have one showing. While in town, Elvis was reputed to have visited Borroum's drug store and by the recollections of Camille Borroum Mitchell, local legend has it he was thought to have temporarily left his guitar there for some unexplained reason. Every year there are various celebrations and events held downtown, such as Hog Wild, Slugburger Festival and the Block Party. Roads are blocked off, talent shows are held, foods are cooked, carnival rides are set up and fun is had by all for a weekend at a time.
