The present northern boundry of Pickens County is the original boundry
seperating the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indian Tribes, The iSreeks had a
town on the site of Tuscaloosa, within the Choctaw Territory and con-
tested the Choctaw title to this land and in 1800 defeated the Choctaws
in a battle between the Tombigbee river and the present State boundry,
one mile south of Pickenville. The Choctaws refused to give up their
Claims and held the territory until 1816 when they ceded the land east
of the Tombigbee River to the United States. Now Highway Markers show
the locations.

ORIGIN OF PICKENS COUNTY, AI.ABMA
When Alabama became a State in 1819 vihat is now Pickens -County /;as in
Tuscaloosa County, but the settlement on the Tombigbee River was too fax
from the county seat of Tuscaloosa County, so a new county was formed
December 19, 1820 and named PICKENS in homor of ISRAEL PICKENS, the
third Governor of Alabajna, The first seat of Pickens County was in the
home of Jacob Dansby, who lived where Pickensville now is, with three
electoral precincts, one at the home of Mr, Mullins, another at the
home of James Heflin, in t-he Garden community and the third at Ezeckial
Nash's
The first settlers were mainly from South Carolina, down the trail from Ditto's Landi
Ditto's Landing on the Tennessee River to "Mud Toa'u'M ater named Elj't.cn.
Even more settlers came in, with the seccion of the Choctaws land in
1830, causing some of the earlier settlers to move on west, a.s they had
only "squatter's rights" to the land in Pickens County,
Pickensville was the first county seat ^-fhen Government gave 80 acres in
1830 to establish a county seat. The county seat was moved to Carrollton
later. Carrollton was incorporated as a town Januai-y 13, 1831, wii,h
Robert Jemison as member of the Board of Cmmmission to locate and l3.y off
the town.
The Acts of the State in 1821 established an election precinct at the house
of Mr,, Cox, near Cole Fire Creek.
December 20, 1824 Bayette County v;as established from part of Pickens and Tu
Tuscaloosa and Marion Counties, In 1832 two Beats on the west side of the
County, were added from Greene County,
In 1819, Rev. Lorenzo Dow, and Itinerant preacher, came into what was
later - Reform, Pickens County, to try and convert the many vandals and
saloons there. He had no result at all in his undertaking, and aa he
was leaving someone was suggesting a name for the town - he yelled back:
"Name it REFORM" and left!
The first white settler in Pickens County was Josiah Tilly, and Indian
Trader who came into Tuscaloosa in 1817, to the east bank of the Tombigbee
River, half a mile above the rpesent town of Pickensville . He is said to
have been born in North Carolina or Tennessee and married in Tuscaloosa
County to a daughter of Patrick Scott, who came to Pickens County from
South Carolina. Tilly is said to have gone to Texas with the Choctaws.
The second settler was t|onothan ^ork, who lived on the road from
Pickensville to Colimibus, Mississippi. His daughter, Catherine, was the
first child born in Pickens County.
The first male child born in Pickens County was Edward L. , son of
Stephen P. Doss, about 1818.
The first marriage in the county was that of Elizabeth Cox and Lewis
Christopher in February 1820, she being the daughter of Daniel Cox.
The first Methodist preacher in the community was Rev. Ebenezer Hearn,
who came in from Tennessee in 1819.
Rev. Charles Stewart, a Baptist preacher was preaching at the Big Creek
Baptist in the year 1823.
The early Presbyterian preachers were not permanent ones, though several
of that faith preached there in the early days.

THE FACE IN THE WINDOW
The Courthouse in Carrollton, seat of Pickens County, Alabama was
burned on Tuesday, November 16, 1876. A negro - Henry Wells was
arrested, two years after as being the one who started the firs. In
the meantime a new courthouse had been built.
Henry was, also suspected of other crimes and to save him from the
enraged mob, he was hidden in the garret of the new Courthouse, Just
at that time an electrical storm occurred and as Henry was looking down
at the mob, his face was stamped on the window by the electricity.
Through all the years, in spite of hail and storm, which destroyed
all other windows in the Courthouse, that particular pane, with the
striking image, remains.
The glass has been scribbed with soap and gasoline as well as other
means, but still that pane has met all tests and to this day, (August
1959) the face remains unchanged.
Henry died in jail from effects of wounds he received as he once
tried to escape.

METHODIST CHURCH OF ALICE, PICKENS COUNTY, ALABAMA
The church was organized in 1879, during the ministry of the Rev.
W. M, Ripper, 5 miles south of Aliceville, a few hundred yards east
of the present Aliceville-Eutaw Highway. The church was named the
Qnory's Chapel and was on the Carrollton demominational circuit.
Another church, on the same Circuit, was located at Olney, eight
miles east of the present site of Aliceville,
In 1900 when the Rev. John W, Norton was pastor of the Circuit
the two churches were torn down, and the lumber taken to Bethany,
six mile southeast of Aliceville and a new church was constructed
there. There had already been a Methodist congregation in Bethany,
so the combined congregation formed a flourishing church which went
by the name of Bethany and remained in the community for about six
years.
In 1906, when the Rev. Samuel N. Burn was pastor, the church building
in Bethany was sold and the congregation moved into Aliceville and
constructed a new church. On Sunday, the 3rd one in May 1909, Bishop
H. C. Morrison preached the dedicatory sermon in the new church in
Aliceville, In 192^, the Aliceville Methodist Church was taken into
the Carrollton Circuit and made a full-time station. During the
pastorate of the Rev. J. E, Jenkins, 1923-192? an annex was added for
Sunday School rooms.
In 1944 a building fund was started for a new church building and
manse. The first service in November 1948, was held in the new build-
ing which cost approximately $45,00.000

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF REFORM, PICKENS COUNTY, ALABAMA
The SESSION BOOK of the early records of this church v-ins lost, so
this record was given by some of the pioneers of this church.
March 20, 1898. Rev. B. F. Bedenger, Evangelist of the Tuscaloosa
Presbytery, organized the church at Reform, Alabama with fifteen
charter members. As the original list was lost, the following is
a partial list:
Mr. & Mrs. G, A. Howell Miss Lizzie Gibson Mrs. G. R. Langdon
Mr, & Mrs. J. H. Cummings Miss Lettie Gibson Mrs. Mollie Dillard
Mr. & Mrs. J. W. Rowe Mr. J. C. Rowe Mr. Friday
The children and grandchildren of the above are still doing the work
their parents began.
This Presbyterian Church was the first church built in Reform, Alabama.
The Mobile and Ohio Railroad had just been completed and v-'ac; the
first railroad in Pickens County. Soon several other Presbyterian
families moved into and near Reform, who were:
Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Bouchillon Mr. & Mrs. J. W. Jones & family
Mr. & Mrs . T. A. Rose Mrs. T. M. Xiesler
Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Spain Mrs. C. C. Xiesler " "
Mr. Purnell and family Mrs. S. H. Bouchillon " "
The preaching services, at first, were held in the school house until
the fall of 1899, when the church building was completed. This is
a nice frame building, in the center of the business part of town.
The church lot was given by Mrs, J. B. Graham, one of the heirs of the
Gibson estate.
Mr. J, B. Graham was not a member of this church but attended the
services and helped support it.

FROM "ALABAMA HISTORICAL QUARTERLY" VOL. #18 PAGE #605
"The first relief Act by Alabama in aid of former Confederate soldiers,
who were maimed during the War between the States, Artificial limbs
were furnished by the State of Alabama to maimed soldiers and sailors
who served between 1861-1865 together with a statement of the facts
leading to Legislation. The Acts of Legislature required such limbs
be named; list of names of the person to whom such aid was extended.
This was shown by counties for the years 186 7 to 1879, both inclusive,
applicants to furnish sworn statement with the Probate Judge of his
county, setting forth his age, place of residence, what Company-Regiment
or Battalion he served; where and how he was woxonded; by what surgeon
or surgeons when the amputation was made and that he was an actual
resident of the county on February 19, 1867 - also that it was his
intention to remain in that county indefinitely; statement to be sworn
to before the Probate Judge and be accompanied by an affidavit from
someone that the facts were true. When the limb was delivered, the
applicant had to sign a receipt that he had received the limb and that
it was satisfactory in every wayo For an arm - $50.00, for a leg -
$75.00 and blinded - $150.00. In 1878 the plan was changed - a flat
sum of $75.00 was to be paid every cripple who hby some means or reason -
could not wear such a leg or arm and who had not received any previous
aid. On totally blind was to receive $150.00, $70.00 for loss of a
leg above the knee and $5 0.00 for a leg below the knee. If mutilation
was of such a nature, that no limb could be used, they to be paid
$100.00" Approved by the Acts of Alabama February 19, 1867,

Glory.

Dudley Hargrove was an unlicensed Methodist Preacher and became a
historic character in 1819 when he went from the Tuscaloosa Quarterly
Conference to the Tennessee Conference at Nashville, October 1, 1819.
He was one among others expected to be ordained as Ministers but this
Conference was pronounced in its standing against slavery and these
men were slave owners, so they were rejected. Five years afterward,
Mr. Taylor, one of these men was taken into the Conference, but Dudley
Hargrove did not live to receive this correction. Family data states
that Dudley Hargrove killed 23 bears in Pickens Coiinty, also that he
served in the Revolutionary War, though nothing has been found to that
effect. In the Methodist records, it is stated that all of Dudley
Hargrove's children - except Benjamin came to Pickens County with him
from Georgia.

Rev. George M. Lyles of Pickens County, Alabama delivered a message
to the Baptist Delegates of the Union Baptist Association, held at
Big Creek Church in 1863. This Association was composed of churches
in Lamar, Greene, Hale and Pickens Counties in Alabama. In this
message he referred to the (then) War Betv/een the States:
"First, in a National Point of View, we were at one time the
happiest nation on earth, but not content with our position in life,
we have become jealous of each other's rights and interests. . . .
in a Nation sense, we have sinned as a Nation, God has seen proper
to lay the chastening rod, by suffering to come upon us — one of the
most bloody wars that American History has ever known."
Rev. Lyles was born in Charleston, South Carolina in 1819, He
married in South Carolina and came to Alabama about 1840 and bought
a farm near the present Liberty High School.
He was twice married and had thirteen children, in two sets. Two
of the second set--Georgia Bullock and B, F. Lyles were living in
1958. He preached all over Pickens County for forty years and in one
year was paid only $3.75o
He also was partner with Mr, Stringfellow in a store in Pickensville
in 1870. He also worked hard on his farm. He would have his dinner
sent to him in the field and read his Bible as he ate.
He trained one negro man to be a great preacher.
Peace to his memory.

JAMES ALSON MCKINSTRY, COMPANY "D " , 42ncl ALABAI'lA INFANTRY, C.S.A.
Discharged April 1365, "AVE ET VALE".
To the Editor of the Birmingham Nev;s :
James Alston McKinstry, who died a few days ago in Birmingham,
Alabama was, at the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, an ideal
exponant of the South, which, in the fashion of miracles, transformed
boys into men-inspired with heroic purpose. Among the first of the
cadets of LaGrange Military Academy to volunteer in the Army of the
Southern Confederacy, it fc;... to the lot of this regiment to re-enact
at the battle of Corinth, Mississippi, a tragedy more fatally mis-
directed than the "Charge of the Six Hundred at Balaklave." Clad
only in shirt and trousers and barefooted, th^: t they might more
readily climb up the steep earthwork--of the fourteen Vv'ho escaped
the carnage of the assault and who reached the j.nterior of the Fort,
this gallant lad-alone-survived the finishing volley of the garrison.
With minnie-ball through his shoulder, another through an arm and a
third through the muscle of the thigh, refused to surrender; he found
shelter in the trench with his dead comrades, whence with the fall of
darkness-he made his escape.
At college, Jim McKinstry was a general favorite and noted as adept
in mathamtics. He had not his equal, even in the advance classes and
later in life, had he but aspired to fame, he could have found a place
in one of our great universities, in this first of the sciences. With
that fatal and inexplicable modesty so often characteristic of a genius,
he chose the path of life.
"Far from the maddening crow's ignoble strife, he trod, ever in
sympathy with his fellows and ever true to his convictions. Requiescat
in pace." So may he swwetly sleep that death will seem a dream of life
which itself is a dream.
Signed: John Allen Wyeth, New York City, March 4.

OBITUARY OF REV, JAMES P. MCMULLEN OF GORO, PICKENS COUNTY, ALABAMA
by Col. Thomas Lanier of Bethesda Presbyterian Church
Copied from an old church record on file in the Presbyterian
Historical Foundation, Montreat, North Carolina.
"In January 1864 he entered the Confederate Army as a missionary to
General Baker's Brigade and remained as such in the discharge of this
duty until the 14th day of May 1864, in the Camp Bivouac on the march.
In this charge on the 14th of May, this great and good man-fell-a
martyr to the cause he so earnestly espoused. He fell in the midst
of a heavy fire and his God-like soul returned to the God who gave it.
He was already ready to administer to the wants of the sick and wounded,
The wounded solders from the battlefied found in him a true friend
and many a soldier will bless the day he was sent to the Army. He
had the respect and confidence of every man in the Brigade. His
preaching was of example as well as precept and never shall the writer
forget the manner in which he applied the truths of the gospel during
a protracted meeting, near Dalton, Georgia in the spring of 1864.
Early in May, the spring campaign opened and after some heavy fire
our army, gradually falling back, made a stand at Resaca, Georgia. On
the 14th of May, our Division was ordered to charge the enemy on our
front. Here the many and impulsive nature of the deceased could
not be kept out of the charge. When remonstrated with he replied:
'Colonel, my Country is as dear to me as it is to any soldier you
have.' He was as true a patriot as he was a Christian Minister.
He believed conscientiously that the South was right, and that religion,
as well as Civic Liberty was involved in the contest and whether he
was right — time will tell. Death is a terrible necessity and a
dreadful calamity when such men have been sacrificed in the prime
of life — in their days of usefulness. May the good fruit-seeds sown
by him during his life, take root, spring up and produce fruit."
He married 1838 Martha Leonora Fulton 1817-1869.

OBITUARY OF MEREDITH TAYLOR
Died of cancer of the mouth, at the resident of his oldest son,
THOMAS TAYLOR, in Pickens County, Alabama on the evening of the 29th
ult., in the 81st year of his age - MEREDITH TAYLOR- who was born
in the State of North Carolina, near the Virginia line, from which
place his father moved to South Carolina — while he was a child and where
he remained until the winter of 1833, when he came to this State. (Ala.)
He had been an exemplary Christian for the last forty years and was a
regular and consistant member of the Baptist Church, almost since the
year 182 7 — having witnesses in the previous year — in October.
During his protracted and loathsome disease, he often expressed a
desire to depart that he might be with Christ. He frequently remarked,
to the writer, as well as to others, that he had been a great sinner,
but that his trust was in the Crucified, Arisen and Exalted Savior,
whose blood he conceived to be sufficient to cleanse from all sin,
therefore, his friends and relations who are left to mourn his loss,
may not sorrow, as those who have no hope, for as much as their loss
was doubled. He died March 29, 1844,
The deceased v\as among the few rem.aining spirits, who — in the days of
the Revolutionary War, stood in the defense of our rights and boldly
contended for the rescue of these United States — from the British Tyranny
and oppression — in his 16th year— as a substitute for his father — he
served in the command under the direction of Col. Lincoln on the
Carolina side of the Savannah River, at Black Swamp (now Hamburg) and
after three months in the Low Country of South Carolina, at a place
called Four Hole.
In the 17th year of his age, he was in the Army under General Greene,
on his own account and actually engaged in the memorial battle which
occurred at Eutaw Springs, in which the Americans gained an important
victory over the British, under Stewart-=which really finished the war
in South Carolina,
As a reward for his labors and privations, the deceased, as were many
of his contemporaries, was spared to see many days to enjoy the many
blessings of our free Institutions, so dearly purchased for us, at the
expense of the blood of the Whigs of 1776.
He and his departed comrade reaised seven children, five sons and two
daughters — all of them, except two, live in this state and were to
witness his dissolution. His remains lay in the graveyard of the
Baptist Church of the Garden, Pickens County, Alabama, he to wait the
shrill summons of Gabriel's trumpet, on the Morning of the Resurrection.

OBITUARY
MR. J. H. WIER
On the 10th day of July, 1885, at 11:30 P. M. , Mr. J. H. Wier
died at his home, near Carrollton, Alabama in the sixtieth year
of age. Mr. Wier was born in Abbeville, District, South Carolina
on the 25th day of August 1825. When he was eleven years of age,
his parents removed with him to Pickens County, Alabama and where he
regarded as his home, with the exception of a few years spent in
Mississippi.
In the War between the States, he served in the Army of the South
as a Lieut, in the 40th Alabama Regiment. At the close of that
war he "exchanged the sword for the plough."
He married Miss Elizabeth J. Taylor who died in 1881, leaving
two adult children. In September 1883, he married Miss Martha
P. Archibald who survived him.
In 1858 he made a profession of faith and connected himself with
the Presbyterian Church at Enterprise, Mississippi.
As in his secular, so in his church relations, he was modest and
unassuming, here as there, he was prompt to know his duty.
His death was a fitting close to such a life - calm and
undisturbed, willing to remain if the Lord so willed, but prepared
to go without a dread or doubt.
