The original location of the town of Mayhew is now referred to as Old Mayhew, but only a cemetery exists there today.

Several bars and service stations lined the four sides of the original intersection, and were torn down when the new expressways were built over a period of several years between 1975 and 1995.The East Mississippi Community College Golden Triangle Campus is in Mayhew.In 1817 Mayhew Mission was established at Mayhew by Presbyterians from Massachusetts for the purpose of Christianizing and educating the Choctaw Indians.
