Girard, Alabama was a city in the far north-east corner of Russell County, Alabama across the Chattahoochee River from Columbus, Georgia.

From 1832–1839 Girard was the first county seat of Russell County. It was incorporated around 1833.

In 1923 Girard merged with Phenix City, Alabama. In 1933, the boundary of Russell County was moved north to take in all of Phenix City that had previously been in Lee County.[2]

Albert C. Baker, who was the only person to serve on the Arizona Territorial Supreme Court and the Arizona Supreme Court, was from Girard.

Demographics

{{US Census population
|1850= 748

Girard first appeared on the 1850 U.S. Census as an incorporated community of 748 residents. Oddly, despite being a large center of population for the time, exceeding an estimated 1,000 residents after 1860, it was not separately returned on the census again until 1900 when it had nearly 4,000 residents.

For reference purposes, the population of the Girard Beat/Precinct, which included the town between 1870-1900 was as follows: 1870=3,984; 1880=4,637; 1890=5,486; 1900=6,440.[4]

It formally ceased to exist in 1923 with its merger with neighboring Phenix City.
