History in
a Pecan Shell
Georgia dates back
to 1860 when it was known as Georgiaville and a post office
operated under that name until 1867. A school was started in 1908,
but was consolidated with a larger district, which was in turn consolidated
with another still larger district.
Georgia and a small cemetery still show up on the detailed county
maps published by the Texas Department of Transportation. There are
still homes in the area and a single church. |
