Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marion County was originally created in 1811 as part of the Mississippi Territory, and its hardy, pioneering spirit can be felt in its citizens even today. The brave and intrepid settlers of Marion County have always had a hand in their home's fate, from the early events of statehood to their roles in both the War of 1812 and the Civil War. The historic John Ford Home hosted many notable figures, including future Andrew Jackson while on his way to his destiny at the Battle of New Orleans. Gov. Hugh White, football great Walter Payton, musician Jeff Bates, and dental pioneer Dr. Charles Bass have also called Marion County home. Sylvester Magee, reportedly the last living slave in America, is buried here, as well as Revolutionary War soldier John Warren and Gen. Benjamin Lee. The historic county seat of Columbia was born of the Pearl River--as a modern city today, Columbia still embraces a colorful past with its southern charm, scenic Main Street, and its numerous historic buildings.

Download or read book Marion County written by Marion County Historical Society with Ca and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formed in 1818, Marion County was named for Francis Marion of South Carolina, known as the "Swamp Fox" during the Revolutionary War. This scenic county lies in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, in the hill country of northwest Alabama. Rich with history, there are three Chickasaw Indian mounds preserved on the banks of the Buttahatchee River in the county seat of Hamilton. The Andrew Jackson Military Road, which runs through the county, was built as a shortcut from Nashville to New Orleans in the early 1800s. Standing on the bank of the river, wagon-wheel marks left from pioneer travel are visible in the rock bed of the river. Images of America: Marion County pays homage to the coal mining history of Brilliant and the ghost town of Pikeville with an 1820s courthouse standing today; Bear Creek with the Allen's Factory history; Guin, rich with railroad and lumber history; and Winfield, named in honor of Gen. Winfield Scott. These treasured photographs provide a look back into history, featuring people with a strong independent spirit and people who believed in our United States of America.

Download or read book Family Maps of Marion County, Alabama, Deluxe Edition written by Gregory A. Boyd and published by . This book was released on 2010-05-20 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Locating original landowners in maps has never been an easy task-until now. This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Marion County, Alabama, gleaned from the indexes of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the early 1900s. 310 pages with 74 total maps What's Mapped in this book (that you'll not likely find elsewhere) . . . 5655 Parcels of Land (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 171 Cemeteries plus . . . Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc. What YEARS are these maps for?
