History

Formed in 1818 from Montgomery County

An old deed may name a county that no longer exists, or a boundary that has since moved.

Blount County was created on February 6, 1818, by Alabama Territory from Montgomery County. The county was named after Willie Blount. Over its history, Blount County experienced numerous boundary changes, gaining and losing territory to neighboring counties including Jefferson, Marshall, Etowah, Cullman, and others between 1819 and 1877.
