History

Marshall County was created in 1836 from parts of Madison, Blount and Jackson counties, as well as from Indian lands. It is located in the northeastern part of the state in the Appalachian Mountain Region. The Tennessee River cuts through the northern part of the county, creating Guntersville Lake, which was first filled in 1939. The county seat is at Guntersville. Other towns in the county include Arab, Albertville and Boaz. Guntersville is on US-431 about 40 miles SSW of Huntsville and 70 miles NNW of Birmingham.

Newspapers: Guntersville Advertiser-Gleam, Gadsden Times, Gadsden Messenger, Birmingham News, Huntsville Times
