Centre is the seat of Cherokee County, long home to the Cherokee people; the noted Cherokee chief Pathkiller lived at Turkeytown, near the present town. On December 29, 1835, the Cherokee signed a disputed treaty giving up their land here, and Cherokee County was created on January 9, 1836, from part of St. Clair County. By the end of 1838 the Cherokee who remained in the county had been forced west on the Trail of Tears.
The new town of Cedar Bluff was the first county seat, but in 1844 the seat moved to the more central town that took the name Centre, with the British spelling, for its central location. The county once reached all the way to Black Creek near Gadsden, until that land became part of Etowah County in 1866, and its rivers and place names still recall the Cherokee. In 2011 Centre began allowing the sale of alcohol. Sources Wikipedia: Centre, Alabama The Historical Marker Database: Cherokee County's Beginnings (Cherokee County Historical Society)
