The small Poinsett County city of Marked Tree was incorporated on July 8, 1897. It was named for an oak tree growing on the bank of the Little River marked with a foot-high “M.” Some believe that the mark was made by Native Americans, while others believe it was created by an outlaw band in the 1830s. When this photo of Main Street was taken in the mid-1903s the city had a population of more than 2,000.
