Located in the central area of the Alabama Territory, St. Stephens, on the Tombigbee River, was the only territorial capital. William Wyatt Bibb was the only territorial governor.
On December 14, 1819 — just two years and nine months after the territory was organized — Alabama was admitted to the union as the 22nd U.S. state.[1]
