Welcome to Bibb County Alabama.
We are proud to be part of
The Heart
of Dixie Project.
Bibb County was created by the Alabama Territorial
Legislature on February 7, 1818. It was one of the first thirteen
counties to be added to the seven already existing when Alabama was
still a part of the Mississippi Territory. Originally, it was called
Cahaba (spelled Cahawba for many years) to preserve the name given
it by the Choctaw Indians, Oka Aba. On December 4, 1820, the State
Legislature renamed it in honor of the late Governor William Wyatt
Bibb. As it was then constituted, it contained much of what is now
the southern part of Shelby County and the western part of Chilton
County. Its present area is 625 square miles.
Help us help
you and others by
contributing your records to
Bibb County.
We look forward to gathering and adding records
to help researchers. Due to the tremendous amount of work
and effort it takes to gather, transcribe and compile
information for the county sites I/we do not have the time to do
individual research. We will do our best to provide you with the
resources for your research by placing records we acquire and
request you help in our efforts by submitting your records to
Margie Daniels.

Alterations
were made to the boundaries in 1818, 1819, 1820, 1821 and
1868. The county name was changed to Bibb on 1820 Dec. 4.
Since Bibb changed boundaries many times it is important to
research the counties your ancestors lived in prior to the
change. |
