Discover Carrollton
Carrollton, the seat of Pickens County, is named for Charles Carroll of Carrollton, Maryland, the longest-living signer of the Declaration of Independence and its only Roman Catholic signer. Pickens County, named for General Andrew Pickens of South Carolina, was established on December 19, 1820, with its first seat at Pickensville. On March 5, 1830, the government awarded 80 acres at Carrollton for a new county seat, and the town was incorporated and its post office opened in 1831.
More about Carrollton
The first courthouse at Carrollton was burned on April 5, 1865, by Union troops under General John T. Croxton. The second burned on November 16, 1876, and a freedman, Henry Wells, was accused of setting the fire. Arrested in January 1878, he was held in the garret of the new courthouse, built in 1877 and 1878, and legend holds that as he looked out the north window at a mob gathering below, lightning struck nearby and etched his face on the pane, where it is still pointed out today. The courthouse square was also the scene of lynchings of African Americans around the turn of the 20th century, among them John Gibson, hanged on August 28, 1907; Pickens County had the fifth-highest number of lynchings in Alabama.
