History
The municipality of Carneiros records its origins in the recent history of Alagoas. The first records indicate, only in 1923, the existence of a single house - part of the Sítio Carneiros - owned by João Francisco, who gave this name to the place on account of a well - according to local residents - that would have been opened by a ram. Hence its first denomination was "Cacimba do Carneiro", being later reduced only to Carneiros. The then village of Carneiros was elevated to a district in 1960, subordinated to Santana do Ipanema. Political emancipation took place on July 11, 1962.

District created in 1958. Elevated to the category of municipality in 1962. Emancipation: 07/26/1960
