Gurley, in Madison County, stands on land owned by pioneer settler John Gurley, whose family settled in the area in 1817. His son, Captain Frank B. Gurley, became a Confederate hero with the 4th Alabama Cavalry.
The town grew around a water and coaling stop on the Memphis and Charleston Railroad known as Gurley's Tank. A post office opened in 1866 as Gurleysville, and the town was incorporated as Gurley in 1891 with 250 residents; its population soon peaked at about 1,000. Madison County High School was located there in 1907, and the town was the last home of Senator Clement C. Clay Jr. and his wife. In 1923 fire destroyed nearly the entire business district; a bucket brigade saved only two businesses. Most of the town is now within the Gurley Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.
