Step right into our search of the past. Tracing our elders in history, their travels and where they lived. .. Barbour County was created on 18 Dec. 1832, from former Creek Indian territory and a portion of Pike County. Its boundaries were altered in 1866 and 1868. The county was named for Virginia Governor James Barbour...Barbour County is located in the southeastern section of the state, bounded on the east by the Chattahoochee River and the State of Georgia. The county seat was established in Louisville in 1833, and moved to Clayton in 1834. Today Barbour County contains two courthouses - one in Clayton and one in Eufaula...."Macon was established by an act approved December 18, 1832, and carved out of the capacious region ceded by the Muscogees in that year. Large and valuable portions have been set apart to Lee and Bullock – to the former 180 square miles, to the latter about 125." 1 "It lies in the east centre of the State, south of Tallapoosa, and Lee, west of Russell, north of Bullock, and east of Montgomery and Elmore. Its name perpetuates the memory of Nathaniel Macon, the North Carolina statesman." 2 Macon County received its present dimensions in 1866. The county seat is located at Tuskegee, which means "warrior" in the Muskhogean dialect of the Creek Indian language.
