FAQs

Why is it called Rainbow City, AL?

Rainbow City was named after U.S. Highway 411, called Rainbow Drive, which runs through the middle of our city. Some of our older citizens say it was named after Alabama's Rainbow Division that fought in World War I. Hernando DeSoto’s troops were the first visitors to the area in 1540 and today a bridge now stands where the Pensacola Trading Path crosses the Coosa River. A paved highway now traces the trail that was cut from Nashville to Horseshoe Bend by Andrew “Old Hickory” Jackson on his way to fight the Creek Indians in a battle known today as the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. Known in the beginning as Coosa Bend, it was later called Morgan’s Cross Road. 

 

What is the history of Rainbow City, AL?

The area that now includes Rainbow City was first settled in 1818 when farming families from the Carolinas and Georgia began to migrate westward in search of new agricultural and mercantile opportunities. The land on which the city now sits belonged to early settler Edmond Jones. At the time, it was known as Coosa Bend, for its location along the river; the town was later known as Morgan’s Cross Road for its location on important trade routes between Gadsden and Ashville and the landing at Gilbert’s Ferry. By the 1830s, the town had its first school and church. The town was not incorporated officially until 1950, at which time it became known as Rainbow City.

 

What makes Rainbow City, AL historical?

On Saturday, April 2, 1831, the church was organized at the Harmony Meeting House. Thomas Morgan served as the first pastor. A few years later, the first Baptist association was organized by Rev. John Gilliland. Harmony was one of the first five members of the association. The adjoining cemetery, Old Harmony Cemetery, has been declared a historic landmark because of its unique features. This cemetery has black and white slaves buried in it, Indians, single and double interments, and most of the tombstones have poems and writings on them. They say one man is buried crosswise because he lived crosswise with the world.
