If you look around that area very much you will see that most of that land is owned by< Barber, of the Barber Milk fame.  He bought 1,000 of acres back in 50s.    At one time he owned(might still ) most of the water front in that area.  There is a plan for a bridge to be built in Josephine area.   It will be a game changer when it is built.   I had a good friend lived that area.  Smoking killed him.

Elberta was founded in the early 20th century by a Chicago-based land company. The Baldwin County Colonization Company was organized in 1903, and the first settlers arrived in 1904. The community was founded by farmers who had immigrated from Germany to the Midwest of America. The land company advertised the area as having rich soil and a climate that allowed year-round farming. The first two organized churches were Lutheran (1908) and Catholic (1905).[4]

The land company laid out Baldwin County in the manner found in the Midwest; that is to say, roads were laid out on section lines that were due north-south and east-west. Property, especially farms, were laid out in squares. With the immigration taking these farmers through Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and other Midwestern states, the early years of the community resembled Midwestern farming communities more than those of the Deep South. In the 1930s through the 1940s, the town boasted a farmer's hall where dancing and singing were enjoyed, a hotel, and a movie theatre, as well as a butcher shop, grocery and drug store. Many of the residents spoke German, and St. Mark's Lutheran Church offered German-language services until 1976.[citation needed]

The State Bank of Elberta was incorporated in 1922. The bank was unusual in that it did not close during the Great Depression.[citation needed]

The town was incorporated by vote on December 9, 1952.[citation needed]

To support the town's volunteer fire department, the Elberta German Sausage Festival was started in the mid-1970s. This event is held the last weekend of March and the last weekend of October and features polka music, Elberta German Sausage, and 250 arts and crafts vendors.[5][6]

The town is the home of the Baldwin County Heritage Museum. The museum is located on U.S. Highway 98 east of the town. It features exhibits devoted to the development of Baldwin County. The museum includes a large amount of farm equipment and exhibits of life in farm homes. The old St. Mark's Lutheran Church building was moved to the grounds and restored.[citation needed]

the nation's 14th fastest growing metro was Alabama's newest, the Daphne-Fairhope-Foley metro.

Across the state, the greater Huntsville metro added the most people, counting about 16,300 new residents since 2010. The Daphne metro was second.

The Baldwin County region had been a micropolitan area in the 2010 census, but the combined population in Daphne, Fairhope and Foley recently crossed the 50,000 threshold. That met the federal definition of an urban center needed to be counted as a metro area.

Pretty fucking bizarre, eh?

What's even more fucking bizarre is that it's in the news because someone broke into it, stole 13 commemorative spoons, and left behind two cigarette butts and an empty bottle of cinnamon whiskey.

lol

I boarded my horses there for 20 years. The woman who ran the place was beyond awesome. Dropped out of high school because it wasted too much time that she found valuable.

Yet, she continued to read as well as train. She proved to me that formal degrees are not entirely necessary. Smart as a whip with a great business sense.

They tried to pave the roads by her..........ha, they are paved up to her property and after that, but they would not pave her road!!

Can not explain the admiration I hold for this woman. We remain friends and always will.

I have to think he gets celebrated like that only because of sympathy since he was assassinated.
Because other than that he was a no good son of a gun. He was a major general in the War of Southern Independence who was the first one to want to wipe out the civilians in my beloved Dixie. Military, civilians, he didn't care, he hated us good old boys.
