Settlers first came to Alabama in search of fertile land for agriculture, particularly for cotton cultivation, which was booming in the early 19th century. The region's rich soil and favorable climate attracted farmers and land speculators. Additionally, some settlers were drawn by the promise of new opportunities and the chance to start fresh in the expanding American frontier. The lure of economic prospects and land ownership played a significant role in the migration to Alabama.
