What Alabama county wanted to secede from Alabama county during the civil war?

The northwest county of Winston set itself apart from most of AL during the Civil War, declaring that if a state could secede from a country then a county could secede from a state. There does not appear to have been a vote to secede from the state but rather a refusal to secede from the Union. Winston County chose to remain neutral in the war, declaring itself the Republic of Winston. It did, however, allow Union troops the unobstructed use of its roads when they came through the area. The Confederacy refused to recognize the county's independence and sought unsuccessfully throughout the war to assert control over the independent-minded "Free State of Winston."
