Stone County Courthouse (Mississippi)
The Stone County Courthouse was constructed in 1917-18 and serves as the seat of county government for Stone County, Mississippi. The courthouse was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 1996.
==History==
Stone County was created by the Mississippi Legislature in 1916. One of the first acts by the new county’s Board of Supervisors was to award a contract for construction of the county courthouse.〔(Stone County, built on the backs of farmers and loggers ) Retrieved 2013-08-29〕 Constructed by Standard Construction Company of Meridian, Mississippi,〔 the courthouse was completed in March 1918 at a cost of $29,515.18.〔(Stone County Timeline ) Retrieved 2013-08-29〕 Within the two-story structure, the lower floor was divided into county offices, and the upper floor served as the courtroom. Offices of the sheriff, tax collector, circuit clerk, and chancery clerk were once located on the first floor. The courthouse was used continuously throughout the 20th century, with modifications that included first-floor extensions on each end of the building.
By the year 2000, the courthouse was in need of renovation. It received a Community Heritage Preservation Grant in 2002 and a Save America’s Treasures grant in 2003.〔(MDAH Historic Resources Inventory Fact Sheet (Stone County Courthouse) ) Retrieved 2013-08-29〕 Upgrades included an elevator, a youth court, and internet access.〔(Stone County Courthouse gets major facelift ) Retrieved 2013-08-29〕 Renovation of the building was completed in September 2004 at a cost of $2.4 million.〔
