Lacy Homestead

Lacy Homestead, also known as the William Austin Lacy House, is one of the only surviving remnants of a settlement in northern Lauderdale County, Mississippi known as "Little Georgia". The first settlers of this area came from Jackson County, Georgia and areas of Virginia, bringing their customs and architectural styles with them to the area. The homestead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
==Settlement==
The first four families to settle "Little Georgia"–the Hardins, the Culpeppers, the Yarboroughs, and the Lacys–moved into the area in the 1830s and 1840s. The Hardins, Culpeppers, and Lacys were all farmers, most likely in the cotton business. The Culpeppers and the Hardins moved from Jackson County, Georgia, thus the label "Little Georgia."
The Lacys, on the other hand, had been successful farmers in Virginia at the turn of the 19th century; those that moved to Mississippi were most likely looking for new farmable land. Austin Lacy, who had fought in the War of 1812, had left Virginia and set up residence in St. Helena Parish, Louisiana by 1816; by 1830 he lived in Marengo County, Alabama; and by 1840 he was in Kemper County, Mississippi, just north of Lauderdale County. Austin's grandson Stephen purchased 410 acres of farmland in Lauderdale County in 1841, making him the first Lacy to actually reside in the Little Georgia community. After Stephen was killed in the Siege of Vicksburg during the American Civil War, his son William Austin Lacy, with whom the Lacy Homestead is most commonly associated, inherited the property.〔 The Lacy family during William Austin Lacy's time was a large family, consisting of him, his wife Estelle, and ten children.〔
As many as sixteen houses were built in this area, though as of the 2007 listing on the National Register only four remain, one being the Lacy house.〔
