Step right into our search of the past. Tracing our elders in
history, their travels and where they lived. .. Barbour County
was created on 18 Dec. 1832, from former Creek Indian territory and
a portion of Pike County. Its boundaries were altered in 1866 and
1868. The county was named for Virginia Governor James
Barbour...Barbour County is located in the southeastern section of
the state, bounded on the east by the Chattahoochee River and the
State of Georgia. The county seat was established in Louisville in
1833, and moved to Clayton in 1834. Today Barbour County contains
two courthouses - one in Clayton and one in Eufaula...."Macon was
established by an act approved December 18, 1832, and carved out of
the capacious region ceded by the Muscogees in that year. Large and
valuable portions have been set apart to Lee and Bullock – to the
former 180 square miles, to the latter about 125." 1 "It lies in the
east centre of the State, south of Tallapoosa, and Lee, west of
Russell, north of Bullock, and east of Montgomery and Elmore. Its
name perpetuates the memory of Nathaniel Macon, the North Carolina
statesman." 2 Macon County received its present dimensions in 1866.
The county seat is located at Tuskegee, which means "warrior" in the
Muskhogean dialect of the Creek Indian language.
