About Memphis
Tucked along the Tombigbee River near the Mississippi border, Memphis (often called Old Memphis) is a quiet, rural community in Pickens County. Founded as a steamboat stop in the 1840s, life here today moves at a relaxed pace among open farmland and quiet riverbanks. Residents head into nearby Aliceville for groceries, errands, and Pickens County schools. Outdoor recreation is a major draw, with Aliceville Lake and the Tom Bevill Lock and Dam offering great fishing, boating, and weekend camping just up the road.
