Mardisville, Alabama

Mardisville, also known as Jumpers Spring, is an unincorporated community in Talladega County, Alabama, United States.

The community was originally called Jumpers Spring, purportedly named after a local Creek Indian who lived in the area.

After the United States enforced Indian Removal in the 1830s of most of the Creek people to west of the Mississippi River in Indian Territory, the United States General Land Office opened here in 1834 to sell land.

[3] The community was renamed Mardisville in honor of Samuel Wright Mardis, who served as the land agent until his death.
