.Lamar County is located in the northwest region of the great state of Alabama. Established on February 4, 1867, it was initially named Jones County in honor of E. P. Jones of Fayette County. However, political issues led to the renaming of the county as Sanford County, after H. C. Sanford of Cherokee County, on November 13, 1867. It wasn't until February 8, 1877, that it was finally named Lamar County in honor of Senator L. Q. C. Lamar of Mississippi.
The county seat is located at Vernon, with other major towns including Sulligent and Beaverton. Lamar County has a rich history, with early European settlers arriving in the 1820s, followed by the establishment of agricultural industries. The region played a significant role during the American Civil War, with several skirmishes taking place throughout the county.
