Incorporation

I have found the following in the March 30, 1892 Weekly Age-Herald under "Local News" (p. 4, col. 3):

Mr. Theodore Smith has incorporated the town of Rosedale, in Shades Valley, just over the mountain, from the head of Twentieth Street. Quite a number of people are living in that flourishing village.

Because the statement mentions Smith and not any government body, I don't think it refers to a government incorporation but rather a business one. --Lkseitz 08:01, 28 March 2014 (PDT)

  • Interesting. I'm not familiar with how that works. The next place to look is the "Acts of Alabama" to see what, if anything, was incorporated that March. --Dystopos 08:11, 28 March 2014 (PDT)
