===Background=== | |||
Most pre-statehood settlers of [[Mississippi Genealogy|Mississippi]] came from the older Southern states along the Atlantic seaboard. Some came from New England and a few colonial French families settled in the Biloxi area. Most of the settlers, however, were of Ulster Scottish, English, and northern European ancestry. Blacks outnumbered whites in Mississippi from the middle of the nineteenth century until the middle of the twentieth. Most of the Indians were gone by the late 1830s, but there are still a few thousand Choctaws living in east central Mississippi. | Most pre-statehood settlers of [[Mississippi Genealogy|Mississippi]] came from the older Southern states along the Atlantic seaboard.
