Blytheville is located in Mississippi County approximately 60 miles north of Memphis. Because of the abundance of trees, the city grew quickly and was incorporated in 1889. According to re- cords, the city had a large and diverse population in 1890. As the vast forest began to shrink, the people of Blytheville started growing cotton. Blytheville was a huge agricultural community until 1980, when farming was increasingly mechanized. Since then, Blytheville has developed a growing industrial base, much of which is centered around the steel industry.
