General Store, Circa 1910, Nona

This landmark general store is thought to have been built in the early 1900s. It served the lost village of Nona, which was dependent on the Perkins cotton operations, and may have even been a commissary. It’s located near another lost village, known alternatively as Dennis Station and Dennis, and I initially identified it as being in that community.

A post office known as Nona was open from 1885-1923.

    Peter E Dennis b. 1877, was an early resident in that area. He married Elizabeth Boswell a sister to my GGG-GF William Boswell. Perhaps this is where Dennis Station originates.
