Carolina is a town in Covington County, Alabama, United States.

The racial makeup of the town was 99.60% White and 0.40% Black or African American.

South Carolina had been hit by an especially severe drought and when missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons) arrived in the area, many members of the Garvin family converted to the Mormon faith.

Elzy Garvin left South Carolina in search of better land, better climate for farming and for matters of faith.

It was recorded that he once remarked, "Our family left Ireland to practice our faith, and we are not becoming something new."

Many of his relations have been found to be buried at Bethcar Baptist Church on the outskirts of Wagener, SC.
