The Society After defeating the Creek Indians in Alabama, Andrew Jackson and his men returned to their homes describing the beautiful land they had seen. People began to travel in wag- ons, on foot, on horseback or in ox carts to this country of beautiful forests, fertile valleys and abundant water. Soon the area was thriving from these energetic people who brought with them a rugged sense of individualism, a deep regard for morality and a loyalty to friends. One of these early settlers, Robert Hagood, built a store at the crossroads of a young community, the name of the community later becoming Hagood ' s Crossroads. Hagood ' s Crossroads, now Pinson, was founded before Jefferson County was carved out of Blount County, and even before the state of Alabama existed as such. The small town grew rapidly. The first mail came to Hagood ' s Crossroads in 1 836 on the Star Route. Early in the life of the community churches were founded. The first of which was Salem Church, now Pinson Baptist Church, founded in 1836. In 1852 horse traders from Tennessee journeyed to Hagood ' s Crossroads and succeeded in changing the name to Pinson. The first public school was founded in 1868 in a cabin on Red Hill. Red Hill Congrega- tion, the first Presbyterian Church was founded in 1875. One year later the Methodist Church began; the original building stood at the present site of the Methodist Church.
