County History

Hinds County was created on February 12, 1821 and was named in honor of Gen. Thomas Hinds. Many Counties were formed from Hinds County. On January 21, 1823, the legislature created Yazoo County out of Hinds, and by the same act the county of Copiah. A little later, February 4, 1828, from all that portion of Hinds County lying east of the Pearl River, the county of Rankin was erected. And on February 5, 1829, Hinds County surrendered “the fractional township seven, in ranges two and three—to be attached to Madison County.” Out of these several counties many other counties have been created, so that Hinds is indeed the "mother of counties." Its county seats are Jackson and Raymond. In the latter, the old records of the county are kept, though courts are also held at the capital, Jackson, the county being divided into two court districts. Jackson is also the state capital and the most populous city in Mississippi. Other cities and towns include Bolton, Clinton, Edwards, Learned, Terry and Utica. Part of the Jackson, Mississippi Metropolitan Statistical Area, as of 2000, the population of Hinds County was 250,800. Hinds County is bordered by Madison County (northeast), Rankin County (east), Copiah County (south), Claiborne County (southwest), Warren County (west) and Yazoo County (northwest).
