Trinity is a small place in Lowndes County, Mississippi. It's known as an unincorporated community. This means it's a settlement that doesn't have its own local government. Instead, it's governed by the larger county. Trinity is located to the south of a city called Columbus. Sometimes, this area was also known as Bryans Store.
Exploring Trinity's History
A Look at Early Trinity
Trinity had its own post office a long time ago. It was open from 1879 until 1903. This means people could send and receive mail right there in their community.
The very first person to be in charge of the post office was J. M. Bryan. He was called the postmaster. J. M. Bryan was also important because he ran a store in the community. This store was likely a central place for people to buy things they needed.
