Tremont, in eastern Itawamba County, was founded in 1852. A mile west of town, from 1887 to 1904, G. A. and J. T. Holley ran the Oakland Normal Institute, which bridged the gap between rural schools and colleges for many students who went on to careers in law, education and business.
More about Tremont
Tremont is the home country of Tammy Wynette, born Virginia Wynette Pugh on May 5, 1942, at her maternal grandfather's farmhouse in Itawamba County. Her father died before she was a year old, and she grew up on her grandparents' farm near Tremont, learning guitar, piano and other instruments, singing in the church choir and picking cotton.
After working as a hairdresser and an after-hours singer, she became one of the most acclaimed performers in country music, with twenty No. 1 records, celebrated as "The First Lady of Country Music." She died in 1998.
