Page 612: Yazoo was established Jan 21, 1823, taken from Hinds, and at the time of its organization embraced a large area of territory of what is now Madison, Holmes, Washington & Issaquena Counties. The first county site was at Beattie's Bluff on the Big Black; It took its name from the owners of the land Robert and David Beattie.
The first county seat of Yazoo was at Beatty’s Bluff, situated on the south bank of Big Black river in the northern part of what is now Madison county, about ten miles northwest of Canton, and about sixteen miles southeast of Benton and a few miles south of Redmondsville. Beatty’s Bluff was situated at a point where a public road leading to Jackson crossed the Yazoo river. At one time it was a prominent point, being on the usual route to Canton and Jackson. The place was named after the early owners of the land, two Beatty brothers. It is now extinct. Its site was for a number of years part of a plantation and is now a canebrake and idle waste lands, and not a vestige of any of these old homes remain to mark the first county seat of Yazoo county.
What is now Madison county was first settled and as the preponderance of population was near Beatty’s Bluff it was selected as the courthouse town. The courthouse, county offices, stores and residences were all constructed of logs felled on or near the site of the place. The floors, doors and windows of the houses were of puncheons riven from logs. Saw mills, planks, shingles and window glass were then unknown in that section of country.
