#PANOPLY HUNTSVILLE HOW TO#

The Redstone Arsenal complex (established 1941), including the George C. Textile production became important after the war. In the 19th century it was a commercial centre for hay, cotton, corn, and tobacco, although its economic base was destroyed by Union forces (April 1862) during the American Civil War. Huntsville was the site (1819) of Alabama’s first constitutional convention and served briefly as the state capital. It was incorporated in 1811 and was renamed for John Hunt of Virginia, a Revolutionary War veteran who first settled the area in 1805 around a large spring. It was originally called Twickenham by planter Leroy Pope for the home of his kinsman, Alexander Pope, the English poet. It is situated in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains near the Tennessee River, about 100 miles (160 km) north of Birmingham.
