Greene County is located in the west-central part of the state of Alabama.  Greene County was named for General Nathaniel Greene, a Revolutionary war hero from Rhode Island.

Counties neighboring Greene include Pickens, Tuscaloosa, Hale and Sumter. Hale County was formed primarily from the east half of Greene County in 1867, therefore a lot of early Hale County information can be found on this site.
