The beginning of this book was conceived by Mackie McAlpin and Patsy Johnson while sitting in the Blackland Cemetery. We wanted the history of our communities to be passed on to the future generation. We have spent over ten years researching and talking with other citizens. This is the history of Blackland, Osborne and Oak Hill communities, Prentiss County, Mississippi. It tells the story of people, places and things in pictures and stories that bind these communities together. This book begins in pre-Civil War days to the present.
