Tylertown is a small town located in south-central Mississippi. The population is approximately 1,900 residents. It's the county seat of Walthall County and has a total land area of 3.1 miles. Approximately one-third of that is water. Tylertown is home to Holmes Water Park, which offers a playground, a walking trail, camping, picnic area, two softball fields and one baseball field. The community of Tylertown is also home to two family annual events; the Walthall County Dairy Festival and Christmas in the Park. The Dairy Festival is held on the first Saturday of June every year to support Walthall Countys dairy industry. It includes live music performances, contests, lots of good food and arts and crafts vendors. The community dates back to the early 1800s and was first known as Magee Settlement. Early settler Cullen Conerly arrived here in 1850 and bought out the Grand Hart store and established a post office which was called Conerlys post office. The store and post office served as the social center of the community for over a half century. The town remained Conerlys from 1848 to 1879 and was later renamed Tylertown in honor of William G. Tyler. Tylertown was part of Pike County until 1912 when Walthall County was formed from Pike and Marion counties.
