History & geography

History

The community is named after Frank W. Foxworth, who settled the community after moving from the east side of the Pearl River. His father had moved from Marion County, South Carolina, and settled near Columbia, northeast of Foxworth. The community of Foxworth operated a grist mill, sawmill, and gin. Foxworth is located on the former Illinois Central Gulf Railroad. The community once had a spur line that connected the Hamilton-Uhl Lumber Company with the New Orleans Great Northern Railroad. In 1992, the Foxworth Bank merged with Trustmark Bank.
