This page will be for general Information about the State of Alabama. I have lived in this state for 26 years and enjoy very much living in the South. The South offers a quieter way of life, where people still nod and say hello to each other, and a neighbor still helps his neighbor. Now some information about my home State.

Where the State Got its Name
The etymology of the word or name, Alabama, has
evoked much discussion among philological
researchers. It was the name of a noted southern
Indian tribe whose habitat when first known to
Europeans was in what is now central Alabama.
One of the major waterways in the state was named
for this group and from this river, in turn,
the name of the state was derived. The tribal name of
Alabama was spelled in various ways by the early
Spanish, French, and British chroniclers.
