ALABAMA
Territory – 1817
-
22nd State 1819
Time Line:
1519 – Alonzo Alvarez of Spail explores Gulf of Mexico from Florida to Mexico, including Mobile
Bay.
1540, Oct. 18 – The largest Indian battle in North America occurs at the village of Mabila or Mauvila
between Hernando de Soto’s Spaniards and Chief Tuscaloosa’s warriors. Most agree that the
Indian village and most of its more than 2,000 inhabitants were destroyed.
1699 – The first white settlers were Spanish and French, perhaps as early as 1699.
1702 – The first permanent settlement was established when Jean Baptiste Lemoyne de Beinville,
French Governor of Louisiana, transferred the seat of the colony from Biloxi east to Mobile Bay.
They established a French fort and settlement at Twenty-Seven Mile Bluff. However it was not
until 1711 that the French laid out the present day Mobile, which with the surrounding territory
was then considered part of Louisiana. The settlement and fort moved downriver to the Mobile
site in 1712.
1717 – Fort Toulouse was constructed on the Coosa River to trade with the Indians and offset British
influence. This was the farthest eastward penetration of the French.
1720 – French Louisiana capitol moved from Mobile west to Biloxi, then to New Orleans in 1722. The
French governed the area from 1712 to 1763.
1763 – France ceded the territory to Great Britain under the peace settlement that ended the French and
Indian War.
1775 – To evade participation in the Revolutionary War, many British sympathizers living in Georgia
moved westward into the Alabama section.
1780 – Spanish capture Mobile during the American Revolution and retain the West and East Floridas as
part of a war ending treaty.
1783 – British ceded the Mobile area to Spain. The remainder of present day Alabama was claimed by
Georgia. Planters from Georgia, Virginia and the Carolinas move into the area.
1795 – The southern boundary of Alabama was set at the 31st parallel.
1798 – The Alabama region was made part of the Mississippi Territory. The rich Tennessee Valley
District in the northern part of Alabama was settled in 1809 by Scotch-Irish from Tennessee. In
the early 1800’s, emigrants from the Carolinas and Virginia came to the central and western parts
of Alabama, especially along the Tombigbee and Black Warrior Rivers.
1812 – During the War of 1812, American forces captured Mobile from the Spanish and defeated the
Creek Indians. This led to the removal of the Creeks and other Indian tribes and opened the area
to settlement. The conclusion of the war was the beginning of a gigantic southward and westward movement. The influx of settlers, most of whom brought black slaves with them resulted
in the formation of the Alabama Territory in 1817. Seven counties were formed with St.
Stephens becoming the capitol.
1818 – Cahaba, which existed only on paper, was made the capital, although Huntsville was used until
Cahaba was built in 1820.
1819 – A convention was held in Huntsville to prepare a State Constitution. Representatives of all 22 of
Alabama’s counties participated in the convention. On Dec. 14, 1819, Alabama became the 22nd
State. Tuscaloosa became the capitol in 1826, followed by Montgomery in 1846.

The first known Pruitt in Alabama was William Pruitt, Sr. (1714-1817). He moved with his son, Jacob
Pruitt, and daughter, Mary (Pruitt) Grayson, from Knox Co., Tennessee in 1807, and settled in Madison
Co., Alabama.
In 1808, Madison County was created by the governor of the Mississippi Territory. The U.S.
Government almost immediately ordered land sales in the northern part of Alabama Territory. In 1811,
the land office was moved from Nashville to Huntsville, attracting many people from the eastern states
to buy land in the Tennessee Valley.

living with relatives. Francis was living in Lincoln Co., TN in 1870; and Cleburne Co., AL in 1880. He
is said to have died in Cleburne Co., AL on June 4, 1900, and was buried in Bethel Cem., Clay Co.,

and three daughters were. Caroline died in Cleburne Co., AL before 1910.

Lineage: CHARLEY ROSSEN GREEN PRUETT
CHARLEY ROSSEN GREEN PRUETT was born in Marietta, Cobb Co., GA on March 2, 1847. It is
known that he had an older sister, Lucinda Eveline Pruett, born in Cobb Co., GA on Sept. 24, 1845.
There has been much speculation as to the parents of these two children. Someone said the parents of
Lucinda Eveline Pruett was a J. B. Pruett and Martha Green. Another said the parents of Charley
Rossen Green Pruett was a James Pruett and M. Pruett. It is possible that these two children were
grandchildren of Davis Pruett and Margaret Black (recorded in Cobb Co., GA in 1840) and their parents
died young. (NOTE: Lucinda Eveline Pruett m. John Scott in Calhoun Co., AL on Nov. 19, 1876)
On Sept. 17, 1864, Charley Pruett, age 16, of Calhoun Co., AL, enlisted in Brice’s Company, 2nd GA
Battery, Sharp Shooters at Cave Springs, Floyd Co., Georgia.
He married Margaret Katherine Dudley in Calhoun Co., AL on Oct. 24, 1867. Margaret was born in

NOTE: the 1860 census shows Enoch’s birth as 1852, which we believe to be correct. The 1880 census
gives his birth as 1845, and the 1900 and 1910 census gives his birth as 1850. Both of Enoch’s wives
were older than him, which may be the reason for the differences in his ages.

The old Preuit house, built in 1815 and torn down the first part of February 1959 for a new residence.
The original house was a log structure and consisted of two rooms, separated by a “dog-trot”. It was
built by Robert Price, who came to Moulton from Virginia and obtained the original land grant from the
government.
222
LAWRENCE CO. AL
In 1825, the house was acquited by WILLIAM PREUIT, who had moved from Madison County. Mr.
Preuit remodeled the house with wood siding, ceilings and a four room addition which included two
upstairs rooms and two behind the original log structure. The house was unharmed by soldiers during
the Civil War, and evidence that Yankee troops did pass nearby can be seen by the fact that three Union
Soldiers were buried on the farm by slaves who found the bodies shortly after the troops passed through
on a retreat through the area. The bodies were buried where they had been found.
One story handed down in the family related that all the meat in the smokehouse was hauled to the
family graveyard about one and a half miles behind the house. A small brick house had been built
around the grave of William Preuit, and this became the hiding place for the family meat until military
troops left the area.
John W. Preuit died in 1923, and Clebe and John H. Preuit were the next occupants of the old home,
living there until 1927. Ward Preuit, son of John H., was the last member of the family to be born in the
old house. In all, 33 Preuits lived there.
The chimney brick, made by slave labor, is believed to have been made in 1815, at the same time brick
was made for the old Bass place on Penitentiary Gap. (Life and Legend of Lawrence County, Alabama,

State of Alabama
County of Lawrence
Before me, the undersigned Judge of Probate in and for Lawrence Co., AL on this day personally
appeared PATRICK CLEBURN PREUIT, a resident of Lawrence Co., AL, to me well known, who, after
being duly sworn, did upon oath say:
I am one of the children of John W. Preuit and his wife Martha E. (McDaniel) Preuit, both deceased.
I was born Jan. 20, 1871. My paternal grand parents were William Madison Preuit and his second wife,
Martha Patsie Preuit, who before her marriage was the widow Hodges, nee Looney. William Madison
Preuit was the son of Jacob Preuit and his wife Nancy (Richey) Preuit.
All the above mentioned are the subject of a Preuit sketch found in Saunders Early Settlers of Alabama
p. 116-7. I now own and live on the old place which my grand father, William Madison Preuit bought
from the Price estate. It has been owned by the Preuit family one hundred years. The old two-story
white colonial house still stands, though in poor repair. We now live in a new house one fourth mile
from the old house. My father John W. Preuit (1834-1924) was born, lived and died and was buried on
this old place. His father, William Madison Preuit, who died in 1841, is buried on what is known as the
Erlin place two miles from here. William Madison Preuit’s father, Jacob Preuit, settled on the Byler
road about twenty miles from Moulton, AL., and it is known as the Preuit Branch, Jacob Preuit is buried
there.
I now have in my possession a Preuit family tree written in the year 1868 by Jacob Madison Preuit
(1816-1890), a half brother of my father, John W. Preuit. He was a son of William Madison Preuit, and
his first wife, Sally (Cavitt) Preuit. At the request of relatives in the year 1877, Jacob Madison Preuit
made a copy of his original tree written in 1868, and presented to my family and I hereby certify, that
the papers hereunto attached, is a verbatim copy of the one which has been in our family since 1877 and
which I now have in my possession.
