Mhoon Landing, Mississippi
Mhoon Landing is an unincorporated community located on the Mississippi River in Tunica County, Mississippi. It is approximately northwest of North Tunica and approximately southwest of Tunica Resorts.
==History==
The landing was named in 1859 for Feyton Mhoon (nicknamed "Faithful"), an African-American settler who each night would take his wagon to Rabbit Island, north of Mhoon Landing, and place a lantern in the lighthouse for river boats to see. Commodities would be ferried by barge to and from Rabbit Island, and Mhoon would transport them to the market in Austin.
During the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, Mhoon Landing served as a Red Cross headquarters.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = MSGenWeb )〕
The land surrounding Mhoon Landing was rarely used as farmland due to its proximity to the Mississippi River and the high risk of flooding. In the early 1990s, it was one of Tunica County's least expensive land acreages.
