Livingston's history began in the early 19th century, when it became a thriving commercial town, but after the Civil War, this small community was all but abandoned. The railroads came through Mississippi, but completely bypassed Livingston, so this made it an impractical place to live or do business. In 2006, a developer bought the town of Livingston, which had fallen into complete disrepair, with most of its original buildings destroyed or decayed beyond any use, and began to rebuild it to its former glory. Now, the community is growing again, with the help of its farmers market, which draws visitors from all over the region.
