History
Eupora was established in 1889 by European Americans on a spur track of the Georgia Pacific Railway. While there was agricultural development prior to the railroad being built in the county, the railroad stimulated trade and businesses. Eupora is the largest city in Webster County.
Near the city there was armed conflict in 1770, among some Native American tribes. The Chakchiuma were destroyed by the allied Choctaw and Chickasaw, who were traditional enemies in the region. They dominated territories in what became Mississippi and Alabama. In 1904, Bud Simpson, an African American man accused of raping white girls, was not given a trial and hanged from a tree by a group of 200 cheering white people, who then shot him.
