History

Prior to European settlement, the area where present-day Montgomery sits was a land inhabited by Alibamu Indians. While the first Europeans to visit were Hernando de Soto and his crew in 1540, real settlement activity didn’t happen for another 100-plus years when a Scottish trader, James McQueen, passed through in 1716. Trade between the French and the Alibamu was facilitated north of the area at Fort Toulouse. Relationships between Native Americans and Europeans during this time were tumultuous and affected the settlement of the area. When the indigenous population moved south, the area opened up for more structured European settlement advancements.

Three newly formed towns situated along the Alabama River – New Philadelphia, Alabama Town and East Alabama, were combined in 1819 to form what is presently known as Montgomery. The moniker of Montgomery was drawn from General Richard Montgomery of the Revolutionary War. Due to increased cotton trade in the area and state of Alabama, Montgomery began to grow fairly quickly. Steamboat travel on the Alabama River connected Montgomery to Mobile. A new courthouse was built in 1822 and in 1832 the Montgomery Railroad opened. Due to its central location and proximity to the Alabama River, the capital of Alabama was moved from Tuscaloosa to Montgomery in 1846.

Politics

Montgomery became very politically involved early on with voting of secession following President Abraham Lincoln’s election in 1860. Shortly after, Montgomery became the first capital of the nation when the Confederate States of America was formed. The subsequent actions of the Confederacy led to the start of the American Civil War. With the Confederate capital later moved to Richmond, VA, Montgomery suffered very little loss as a result of the war. They continued to advance, becoming the first city in the United States to install electric street cars. In 1910, Montgomery became the home of the Wright brothers’ Wright Flying School. It was later developed into Maxwell-Gunter Air Force Base.

Civil Rights

The modern civil rights movement was pushed along by many key incidents that happened in Montgomery including Rosa Parks’ arrest for refusal to give up her seat to a white man, Martin Luther King Jr.’s organization of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, Alabama State College sit-ins to protest segregation, protesting of the Jim Crow laws which blocked African Americans from voting, and the violent resistance met by protesters known as “Bloody Sunday.”

Montgomery continued to fight for equality and diversified over the years. Montgomery became a center for art, culture, and continued political study. With all of the press came big name corporations like Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama and Colonial Bancgroup. Education, especially medically inclined, was put on the map with the University of Alabama’s extension sites. Revitalization of the downtown area has been the city’s latest venture.

Education

The Montgomery area is home to more than 13 colleges, universities, and higher education institutions. The most prominent include Alabama State University, Troy University – Montgomery Campus, Auburn University at Montgomery, Faulkner University and H. Councill Trenholm State Technical College.
