In 1944, a memorial marker was erected on the courthouse square "To the memory of the Denson Brothers – Seaborn M. Denson (1854-1936) and Thomas J. Denson (1863-1935) who devoted their lives and gifts to composing and teaching American religious folk music as embodied in the Sacred Harp, in most of the Southern States, but mostly in Alabama.


This stone is placed in the midst of their field of labor by the loving hands of their families, pupils of their singing schools, and legions of singers and friends in the summer of the year 1944. The One Hundredth Anniversary of the Sacred Harp while 'Uncle Seab' and 'Uncle Tom' sing on – 'way over in the promised land'." In 1987, the "Dual Destiny" statue was erected in front of the courthouse.


This statue of a soldier, half confederate and half yankee, represents Winston County's dual affiliation during the American Civil War in which soldiers from within the county fought for both the Union and Confederate armies.

This movement became known as the Republic of Winston and remains a local legend to this day.
