Welcome to the Autauga County Page |
|
|
|
|
|
From time to time, I will post pix e-mailed to me of Autauga County scenes and people. Because of the demand, I ask that submitters limit themselves to scenes of most interest to others, and your most-want-to-tell about or ask about-relative. The pix will change as time and demand permit. Enjoy! |

Daniel Pratt was not the first Methodist cotton gin maker to come to Autauga County. I don't know who was, but my g-g-grandfather Rev. John DuBois came in 1820. Below is the last of three patents that John was granted for improvements made to the DuBois Cotton Gin. Like many smaller gin-makers, Rev. DuBois did not have the financial backing to weather bad crop years. |
