Terza, Panola County: A Methodist Church, a Rural Post Office, and the Lester Family

Appalachian Community Histories – Terza, Panola County: A Methodist Church, a Rural Post Office, and the Lester Family.

Terza never developed into one of the county’s principal towns, and surviving historical accounts offer little indication that it possessed the commercial importance of its larger neighbors. Nevertheless, the community’s name appears in nineteenth-century postal records, early Mississippi historical publications, Methodist church histories, and cemetery records that reveal a settlement with roots extending back to the antebellum period.
