Discover Brooklyn
Brooklyn, in southern Forrest County, grew up with the Gulf and Ship Island Railroad. It was first called Bullis, after one of the railroad's construction engineers, and was later renamed Brooklyn for one of the pioneer families. A post office opened under the name Brooklyn in 1897.
More about Brooklyn
Two early settlers, John and Sam Perkins, ran the Perkins Merchandise store and Perkins Ferry on Black Creek, which was then used to float rafts of logs cut from the surrounding pine forests down to the trade center at Pascagoula. At its height Brooklyn had three pine lumber mills, several general stores, three drugstores, a grocery and a school. Today Brooklyn is a small unincorporated community in the Hattiesburg metropolitan area. Sources Wikipedia: Brooklyn, Mississippi
