Easonville was a community in St Clair County, near Pell City and Cropwell, that was flooded by the damming of the Coosa River to form Lake Logan Martin in 1964.

The Brothers 4 Motel and Big Bull Restaurant opened in 1966 on U.S. Highway 231 at the shore of the lake near the former community. Wright Dairy Farm and its Easonville Creamery were located about a half mile from the community in the early 1900s.
