Tumbleton is an unincorporated community in Henry County, Alabama, United States.

The origin of the name Tumbleton came from a lot of tumbling that went on in the large sand-bed under a huge post oak tree by traveling salesmen, drunks, school children, and from Tumble Bugs rolling horse manure.

The place once had 1,000 people in the Tumbleton Jr. High School District in the late 1920s.

Tumbleton is situated in some of the best peanut, cotton, and grain farming areas in Henry County, Alabama.
