History
The name Eastabuchie is derived from a native Choctaw language term for the Leaf River. Eastabuchie is located on the Norfolk Southern Railway and was incorporated on February 19, 1890. It was unincorporated at an unknown date. It was first named as a CDP in the 2020 Census which listed a population of 187. The small, rural town is home to the studios of television station WDAM, the area's NBC and ABC affiliate. In 1912, according to Frank Leslie's Weekly, several Confederate veterans lost their lives in a train wreck in Eastabuchie.
