Winston County is a county of the U.S. state of Alabama, formerly known as Hancock County before 1858.Its name is in honor of John A. Winston, the 15th Governor of Alabama. As of 2006 census estimates, the population was 24,634. Its county seat is Double Springs.Winston County was established under the name Hancock County on February 12, 1850, from territory formerly in Walker County.It was originally named for John Hancock, Governor of Massachusetts and famous signer of the American Declaration of Independence, with its county seat at Houston. On January 22, 1858, the county was renamed Winston County to honor Alabama Gov. John A. Winston. During the American Civil War, the county gained notoriety for its opposition to secession, which was so strong that it was sometimes referred to as the Republic of Winston. The county today plays on its reputation as the "Free State of Winston" to attract tourists. The county''s opposition to the Confederacy is briefly mentioned in the novel To Kill a Mockingbird. Tap Roots, a 1948 movie based on a novel, presents a highly fictionalized and inaccurate version of Winton County''s Civil War history.
