COMMENTS
Port Gibson Circuit Court is the Twenty Second District Circuit Court of Claiborne County in the circuit court system of Mississippi.
ABOUT THE AREA
The A.K. Shaifer House figures in the Civil War. It reportedly is the site of the first shot fired during the Battle of Port Gibson. It is still standing, but its walls show the scars from missiles fired during the battle. Union Headquarters and a hospital were at one time located in the structure. The house stands on what is now designated as “The Port Gibson Battlefield” which is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
