Pickens County was created by the Alabama legislature on
Dec. 19, 1819, out of Tuscaloosa County. It was named
for General Andrew Pickens of South Carolina, a hero of
the Revolution. The first county seat was established at
Picken's Courthouse (later called Pickens and
Pickensville) and moved to Carrollton in 1830. Neighboring Counties include Fayette,
Greene,
Lamar,
Sumter
and Tuscaloosa
in Alabama and Lowndes
and Noxubee
counties in Mississippi.
