Victoria is located along Alabama State Route 125, {{convert|10.8|mi|km}} northeast of Elba. HistoryThe community was originally known as Smut Eye, as tradition states the local men would stand around a fire outside the local store and become covered in soot. Later, the name was changed to Buzbeeville in honor of William Buzbee, who served as postmaster. Finally, the name was changed to Victoria, in honor of Victoria Winslow, a local citizen.[2] A post office operated under the name Smut Eye from 1850 to 1853, under the name Buzbeeville from 1853 to 1868, and under the name Victoria from 1868 to 1927.[3] Company D of the 12th Regiment Alabama Infantry, (known as the "Coffee County Rangers"), was organized by John Canty Brown of Buzbeeville. The regiment fought at the First Battle of Bull Run, the Battle of Antietam, and the Battle of Gettysburg, among other battles. The regiment surrendered after the Battle of Appomattox Court House.[4] References1. ^{{cite gnis|153842|Victoria}} {{Coffee County, Alabama}}{{Alabama-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite book |last=Foscue |first=Virginia |date=1989 |title=Place Names in Alabama |url= |location=Tuscaloosa |publisher=The University of Alabama Press |page=142 |isbn=0-8173-0410-X |accessdate= }} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=AL&county=Coffee | title=Coffee County | publisher=Jim Forte Postal History | accessdate=5 January 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|last1=Fleming|first1=Georgia|title=Unit History|url=http://www.coffeecountyrangers.org/unithistory.html|website=coffeecountyrangers.org|accessdate=5 January 2016}} 2 : Unincorporated communities in Coffee County, Alabama|Unincorporated communities in Alabama |
