Mississippi Winn (March 31, 1897 – January 14, 2011) was an American supercentenarian. Mississippi Winn was born in Benton, Louisiana in 1897. She was the 13th of 15 children born to Mack and Ellen Winn. She was a housekeeper all of her life and cleaned and cooked her own meals until the age of 103 when she moved into Magnolia Manor Nursing Home in Shreveport in 2001.

She moved to Seattle, Washington around 1957 and resided there for 18 years until her youngest sister died in 1975. Her death caused Winn to move to Shreveport, where she had lived ever since.
