Brookhaven poised for growth with factories and hotel drive
Brookhaven, Mississippi faces a pivotal growth moment as leaders urge expanding manufacturing to compete with rival towns. Calls emphasize adding a cotton factory and hardwood plant, plus a modern hotel and a railroad link to stay “in the swim.” The city also notes a growing population, schools, churches, and existing industry. In other items, obituaries and local notices outline the death of J Harvey Thompson, a respected Copiah County figure, and social news covers a wedding upcoming in Jackson between Josie Millsaps and Gaston Thomas Fitzhugh.
