Autauga County

History

Autauga County was created by the legislature in 1818. The county was named for Autauga Creek, which runs through it. It was formed from Montgomery County. In 1866, part of its territory was taken to establish the new county of Elmore. In 1868 another portion of the county was taken to establish Baker, later known as Chilton County. Autauga County is located in the central part of the state, wholly within the coastal plain. It is bounded  by the counties of Chilton, Lowndes, Elmore, Montgomery, and Dallas. In 1819, the first county seat was established at Washington. In 1830, it was moved to Kingston, and in 1868, to Prattville. Prattville is three miles west of I-65, about ten miles northwest of Montgomery.
