Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Alabama/1957 renumbering

This apparently happened on January 1, 1957. Since the pre-renumbering source I have is from 1955, some of these changes may have happened before then. Originally went south on what is now US 431, SR-51, and unnumbered roads to Eufaula; rerouted to the west over parts of SR-11 and SR-21 in 1930; old route renumbered as SR-37 north of SR-26 SR-37 formerly went east on what became SR-62 until 1931, when SR-37 was assigned on this route. Old SR-37 was renumbered to SR-62. SR-56 originally went from Chatom to Deer Park. This was swapped with SR-29 by 1946 and extended west to Mississippi in 1949/1950.
