wiki says: Mobile was the capital of the Louisiana territory until 1720

remained part of Louisiana until the Seven Years War, 1763, after which it was ceded to Britain and became part of British West Florida

remained as such and loyal to the crown, Spanish captured it during Revolutionary War

U.S. seized Spanish West Florida during War of 1812, and Mobile became part of Mississippi territory

4 years later (1817) the Alabama territory was formed.
