Cohay, Mississippi

Cohay is an unincorporated community in Smith County, in the U.S. state of Mississippi.[1]

History

The community derives its name from alteration of the last two syllables of nearby Oakohay Creek.[2] A post office called Cohay was established in 1915, and remained in operation until 1937.[3]

gollark: I expected to basically just use it for portably accessing stuff at home, but it turns out that most of my workloads run fine on this and my desktop's GPU was (still is, but I replaced it with a much worse one so I could use it workingly as a server) a bit broken so I use it for most stuff now.
gollark: The main issue is that I did not buy enough RAM for it, and the screen is bad.
