History:
The Clanton Group was started in February, 1950. There were three people at that first meeting, and two more at the second. These five members formed the group, and are considered the co-founders: Red W., Myrtle W.J., Joe J., Cecil E., and Raymond P. The archives contains a copy of a contract between a Mrs. Upchurch and the A.A. Club of Clanton Alabama for the lease of a hall located over the Klinner Furniture Store on Seventieth Street North, to commence on January 1, 1958.
The Clanton Group met at two locations — this one and another location in Thorsby — for a number of years. The Thorsby location closed its doors on July 1, 2015 when their meeting space was no longer available to them.
