The owner's name is a matter of public record, not a published fact here
This article cannot state a person's or company's name as the owner of Palace Bingo in Knoxville, Alabama. Ownership of a physical bingo venue is recorded in state and county filings, and those filings change when a business is sold, restructured, or relicensed. What this article can do is explain exactly which public office holds the current answer, how to read that record, and where the venue itself sits.
Palace Bingo is a fixed physical location in Knoxville, a city in Greene County, Alabama. The venue's position does not change when its owner does. The rest of this article separates the two questions: the ownership record on one side, and the fixed geography on the other.
The document that names the owner
In Alabama, a for-profit venue operating under a trade name such as "Palace Bingo" is typically registered at two levels. The first is the county probate office or the Alabama Secretary of State, where a trade name or fictitious business name filing connects the public-facing name to a legal entity. The second is the county tax assessor or revenue commissioner, where business personal property and sometimes the real property parcel are assessed to an owner of record.
Neither of those documents is a static fact that an article can safely print. The correct move is to request the current filing from the office that maintains it. For Greene County, Alabama, the reader should contact the Greene County Probate Office for trade name records and the Greene County Revenue Commissioner for property tax records. The Alabama Secretary of State's business entity search is the state-level channel for a registered corporation, LLC, or partnership.
What the ownership record shows
A trade name filing does not always name the person who runs the hall day to day. It names the legal entity that registered the name. That entity may be a corporation whose officers are listed in a separate annual report, or an LLC whose members are not listed at all. The reader should not expect a single document to answer the question in one line.
The sequence that works in practice is: pull the trade name filing to get the legal entity, then pull that entity's formation or annual report to see its registered agent and, where filed, its officers or members. The registered agent is not necessarily the owner; it is the address where legal papers are served.
| Record type | What it names | Where it is filed |
|---|---|---|
| Trade name / fictitious name | Legal entity behind "Palace Bingo" | Greene County Probate Office |
| Business personal property assessment | Owner of record for tax purposes | Greene County Revenue Commissioner |
| Entity formation or annual report | Registered agent, officers or members | Alabama Secretary of State |
Knoxville, Alabama is the fixed reference point
Knoxville is a small incorporated community in Greene County, in the west-central part of Alabama. The county sits near the Mississippi state line, and Knoxville is positioned within the county's rural interior. The venue's fixed location means any ownership inquiry starts from the same place: the county and state offices that govern Greene County.
Because the keyword asks about a specific venue rather than a distance from the reader, no straight-line mileage table is applicable here. The article does not publish road distances, driving times, or route numbers. The only geographic facts that matter are the city, the county, and the state, all of which are documented above.
Why the owner's name is not printed here
Ownership of a bingo venue is a live fact. It changes by sale, inheritance, corporate restructuring, or the expiration of a lease or license. Any name printed in an article would be a snapshot that may already be wrong when the reader acts on it. The durable answer is the channel, not the name.
The reader who needs the name today should request the current trade name filing from the Greene County Probate Office, then follow the entity to the Alabama Secretary of State. That path yields the answer as of the date of the request, with no reliance on a third-party summary.
What to confirm before you go
Before travelling to Knoxville or relying on an ownership record, confirm three things. First, confirm the venue's operating status with the venue itself or the Greene County business license office; a business name can remain on file after a hall closes. Second, confirm the exact legal spelling of the trade name, because a filing under a slightly different name will not appear in a search. Third, confirm whether the property is owned separately from the business, since the landowner and the operator are often different parties.
FAQ
Can I find the owner of Palace Bingo online?
The Alabama Secretary of State maintains a searchable business entity database. A trade name filing may also be searchable through the Greene County Probate Office. What appears online depends on what the entity filed and when. The reader should search by the exact trade name and by likely legal entity names, and treat any third-party directory as unverified.
Is the owner of the building the same as the owner of the bingo business?
Not necessarily. The business may lease the building from a separate property owner. The business personal property assessment names the operator's equipment and fixtures, while the real property parcel names the landowner. Both records are held by the Greene County Revenue Commissioner, and the two names can differ.
Why does the venue's location matter for an ownership search?
Because every ownership record is filed in a specific jurisdiction. Knoxville is in Greene County, Alabama, so the county probate office and revenue commissioner hold the local records, and the Alabama Secretary of State holds the state-level entity records. Searching the wrong county or state returns nothing useful.
