The story of Uniontown

Mississippi's ghost towns are river ports and cotton towns, plus lumber camps that clear-cut the pine hills.

Uniontown is a ghost town in Jefferson County, Mississippi, United States. Established along the Natchez Trace (also called the "Old Natchez Road") in the late 18th century, the settlement is now extinct, though "the main street is still visible running parallel to the trace".
