Louisville, the county seat of Winston County, is named, like the county, for Louis Winston (1784–1824), a militia colonel, prominent lawyer and judge of the Mississippi Supreme Court. It had 385 residents in 1870. In 1863 Union Colonel Benjamin Grierson marched 900 troops through Louisville during his raid across Mississippi, though no fighting took place in the county.
In 1927 a mob of about 1,000 white men lynched two African Americans, Jim and Mark Fox, who had been accused of killing a white man. Until 1970 the town ran separate schools for white and Black students, the latter attending the Louisville Colored School; the school system adopted a desegregation plan in 1967, and Winston Academy was later founded as a segregation academy. The population peaked at 7,323 in 1980. On April 28, 2014, an EF4 tornado struck Louisville and killed ten people. Sources Wikipedia: Louisville, Mississippi
