Calhoun County Georgia
Greetings ya'll! I am
Margie Daniels, Calhoun County Georgia site manager. I do not live
in Calhoun County but do live in the South. I do have a interest in
Calhoun county since my family was from the county. You guessed it.
I took the county to research my relatives. What a great way to gather
information. I will gather the county data while I do my own research for
my family. Best of both worlds. Want to help? I sure could use a
lending hand. Send your information to me and I will add it to the
county site. Want to help others with look ups or queries? Send me
your information and what resources you have for helping and I will gladly add
you to the list of volunteers. God Bless
Calhoun County was created on Feb. 20, 1854 by an act of the
General Assembly (Ga. Laws 1853-54, p. 284). Created from Baker and
Early counties, Calhoun County's original boundaries as specified in
the act were:
Beginning at a point where the North and South parallel line
between lots of land numbers 393 and 334, in the 4th district of
Early County, intersects with the county line between Randolph
and Early, and Randolph and Baker, and thence east on said line
until it intersects with the most westwardly main run of the
Chickassawhatchie Creek, and thence South on said run and creek
(though not including Grimmett's causeway,) until the point
where said creek intersects the east and west district line,
dividing the third from the seventh district of Baker, and the
fourth from the sixth district of Early, and thence westwardly
on said line until it intersects with the main branch or run of
Spring Creek, thence up said main run to the north and south
line, dividing lots of land numbers 348 and 359, in the 4th
district of Early, and thence north along said line until it
intersects with said county line between Randolph and Early
