Dozier is named for Daniel Dozier (August 15, 1805 – November 4, 1878). Born in South Carolina and orphaned young, he came to Alabama around 1817, ran a large farm and gristmill, and served as minister to several area churches; he was a moderator and leader of the Conecuh River Association for more than 50 years. He married Elizabeth "Betsey" Taylor in 1824, and the couple had fifteen children. He is buried at Good Hope Primitive Baptist Cemetery in Covington County.
Dozier was incorporated in 1907 and became known as "The Flowing Well City" for its many artesian wells, including one in the town center that supplied water for residents and livestock and another that filled the public swimming pool. In the early 20th century the town had a train depot, a hotel, a post office, a bank, several stores, a feed mill, a cotton gin, a lumber mill, a textile mill, a telephone exchange, a doctor's office and a school.
