The Town of Cottonwood officially became an incorporated town 120 years ago.
The history of Cottonwood can be traced back to the 1850s. During this time period, it was a crossroads settlement and the main wagon route between settlements in lower Henry County, which is now Houston County.
A variety of different structures were built, including a general store, a drug store, turpentine mills, a post office, and a church. The postal department designated the office as Cottonwood since many locals named it after a lone cottonwood tree that was growing in the area.Listen now and subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | RSS Feed | Omny Studio The settlement continued to grow into the 1900s and it eventually became a crossroads community.
According to documents discovered in April 2021, incorporation was immediately granted after 43 people voted yes and 19 voted no. Soon after, Leslie issued an order to hold the first municipal election.
