Hamburg, Alabama
Unincorporated community in Brownsville, Alabama From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hamburg, also known as Hamburgh or Hamburg Station, is an unincorporated community in Perry County, Alabama, United States. A post office operated under the name Hamburg from 1833 to 1941.[2]
Hamburg appeared on the 1850 U.S. Census as an incorporated town. It had a population of 92. Of those 92, it had 46 black and 46 white residents. Forty five of the forty six black residents were slaves and 1 was free.[4] This was the only time Hamburg appeared on the census rolls. Although it was mentioned on the 1870 census, its population was not separately returned from its precinct.
