McComb was founded in 1872, when Henry Simpson McComb, of the New Orleans, Jackson and Great Northern Railroad, moved the railroad's maintenance shops out of New Orleans to the site; three nearby communities then joined to form the town, which took his name. As a rail center, McComb was a flashpoint in the Illinois Central shopmen's strike that began on September 30, 1911, when riots left many injured and at least three Black strikebreakers dead.
In 1961 the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee began its first voter registration project in Mississippi in McComb. After the expulsion of student Brenda Travis and the murder of Herbert Lee, 115 students walked out of Burglund High School on October 4, 1961. In late August and September 1964, after passage of the Civil Rights Act, McComb was the site of eleven bombings aimed at African Americans. The blues musician Bo Diddley and the singer and actress Brandy Norwood are among McComb's natives. Sources Wikipedia: McComb, Mississippi
