Welcome to Petersburg ...So far, we found very little information about Petersburg. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Petersburg to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Petersburg - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Petersburg, please Contact Us. While we don't have the exact location of Petersburg , we believe that it would have been located within present day Bibb County<2>. While we don't have a date for the founding of Petersburg, you might get a feel for it by knowing that during our research the earliest mention that we found (so far) was on a map dated 1911. Time Zone: The area where Petersburg was located is in the Central Time Zone (CST/CDT) and observes daylight saving time Communities Also Named Petersburg ...Using our Gazetteer, we found that there are 55 communities that are also named Petersburg - they are located in Alaska, California (2), Delaware, Georgia, Illinois (3), Indiana (2), Iowa (2), Kansas (6), Kentucky (3), Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri (4), Nebraska, New Jersey (3), New York, North Carolina (3), North Dakota, Ohio (2), Oklahoma, Ontario, Oregon, Pennsylvania (4), Tennessee (2), Texas (2), Virginia (3), West Virginia and Wisconsin.

When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future. The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Petersburg was on a map titled Map of Alabama (from Rand McNally, 1911). For more details, see References and Mentions for Petersburg.
