Gladstone
Gladstone, thirteen miles southwest of Huntsville in western Walker
County, had a post office from 1888 to 1909. In 1890 the community
comprised a corn mill, a cotton gin, a general store, and a population
of twenty-five. Gladstone by 1896 had forty residents, two mills and
gins, a store, and a local physician. In 1933 it reported one business
and a population of 100, but by 1945 its population had dropped to
fifty, and by 1949 population estimates were no longer available for the
community. In the 1990s no remnants of Gladstone remained. TSHA
