Discover Lineville

Lineville, in Clay County, was home to Native Americans until the Creek War of 1813 and 1814 led to their removal. The first white settlers were William and Thomas Lundie, and their settlement became Lundie's Cross Roads after a trading post opened in the 1830s to serve pioneers and gold prospectors. Crooked Creek Baptist Church was organized nearby in 1839. In 1856 the place became County Line, probably for a Baptist church founded in 1848 on what was then the line between Talladega and Randolph counties, and a post office opened that year.

More about Lineville

About 56 local men who served in the Civil War are buried in the Old Lineville Cemetery, and by the war's end Confederate money was worthless and the area suffered hardship. Clay County was formed in 1866, and in 1870, when the town became the county's temporary seat, County Line was renamed Lineville. A newspaper arrived in 1884, and a college opened in 1891 under H. J. Willingham, the first appointed mayor. In 1898 Lineville was incorporated, graphite mining became a major industry and a national bank opened. The first railroad arrived in 1907, and the town got water and electricity in 1917.
