Roxana, Alabama

Roxana, also known as Rock Springs, /rɒksænə/ is an unincorporated community northwesterly located in Lee County, Alabama, United States.

It is part of the Columbus, Georgia-Alabama Metropolitan Area.

Since there was already a Rock Springs post office registered in Alabama, Samuel A. Burns, the first postmaster, devised a new name.

He combined "rocks" and "Anna", the name of his wife, to come up with Roxana.
