Columbia County is a county located in the east primal portion of the The states state of Georgia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 124,035.^[2] The legal county seat is Appling,^[3] but the de facto seat of county government is Evans.^[one]

Columbia County is included in the Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC Metropolitan Statistical Area, and is currently one of the fastest-growing counties in the United States. It is located along the Savannah River.

History [edit]

Columbia County, the 12th canton formed in Georgia, was created by an deed of the Legislature of Georgia on December ten, 1790 from Richmond County.^[4]

Prehistory and the colonial era [edit]

This area along the Savannah River had been inhabited for thousands of years past diverse cultures of indigenous peoples. The area had been home to the historic Muscogee-speaking Creek; Yuchi, people speaking a language isolate; and Iroquoian-speaking Cherokee for years prior to European colonization. The Yuchi had moved south from Tennessee because of pressure level from the Cherokee, who connected to motility into the Piedmont and soon dominated the Native American tribes. One of the oldest archaeological sites in the nation to incorporate pottery can be plant on Stallings Isle.

During the Colonial era, settlement of what would become Columbia County occurred primarily due to colonists settling at the second city in Georgia, Augusta, located on the Fall Line. When the British Province of Georgia became a crown colony in 1755 and was divided into parishes, the surface area effectually Augusta became St. Paul'south Parish. The primary areas of settlement were Augusta; Wrightsboro (a Quaker settlement named for James Wright, the purple governor); and Brownsborough, which was near the nowadays-day location of North Columbia Elementary School.

Considering the Church of England was the established church in the province, information technology was against the law for anyone to preach contrary to its doctrines. Influenced by the Smashing Awakening in New England, in 1772 Daniel Marshall established Kiokee Baptist Church, the first Baptist church in Georgia. The church was located beneath Brownsborough along the Kiokee Creek in present-solar day Appling. Born in Connecticut, Marshall had been raised every bit a Presbyterian. He had become a Baptist and preached in the Carolinas earlier coming to Georgia, where he was arrested. Baptist preachers and their converts connected to flourish, and in Virginia their influence helped shape the immature James Madison's ideas on religious freedom, which he incorporated into the new Constitution. Marshall later served in the militia during the American Revolutionary War. During the 19th century and the Second Dandy Awakening, the Baptists became well established in Georgia and other southern states. The Baptists offered congregational participation to slaves and approved them and gratuitous blacks as preachers, leading to the growth in black membership in the church.

American Revolutionary War [edit]

Two small-scale battles occurred in what would become the County during the Revolutionary War between Patriot Militia and Tories; the area was and so primarily frontier and loyalties were badly divided. Legend has information technology that a small ring of Patriots sought refuge from marauding Tories at the County's most dramatic geological characteristic, Heggie's Rock. One of these fights occurred on September eleven, 1781, between the forces of Elijah Clarke and a ring of Tories and British Regular soldiers.

George Walton, the Virginia-built-in statesman who signed the Announcement of Independence, resided in what would become Columbia County, as did William Few and Abraham Baldwin. They were delegates to the Federal Convention that framed the U.s. Constitution.

Formation of Columbia Canton [edit]

Just before and immediately after the Revolution, numerous Virginians and North Carolinians migrated to the frontier of Georgia above Augusta, including the surface area around Brownsborough. After the Revolution, residents disagreed as to whether Augusta or Brownsborough should be the county seat of Richmond County. At the insistence of William Few, the county was partitioned. The new county formed from Richmond was named "Columbia" (for the origin of the name see Columbia); this did not end the controversy about location of the county seat. The citizens of Columbia County turned to arguing amidst themselves. Supporters built 1 courthouse in Brownsborough, and those of Cobbham built another. The courthouse at Cobbham was used; and Brownsborough in brusk order ceased to be. In 1793, part of the Canton was taken, combined with part of Wilkes County, and formed into Warren County.

Effectually 1799, William Appling deeded a tract of country to the county for the purpose of building a courthouse. Information technology was near Kiokee Creek and the Baptist Church which Marshall had founded. A courthouse was constructed, and served the canton until around 1808. The small town that existed around the church and courthouse came to exist known as "Columbia Courthouse." In 1809, the Baptist congregation left the boondocks and constructed a new meeting house (a building which survives) several miles abroad near the junction of Kiokee and Greenbrier creeks. That same twelvemonth, construction began on a new courthouse, which was completed in 1812. In 1816, Columbia Courthouse was chartered as the Town of Appling, named for the Appling family who had donated the country to the county, and for Colonel John Appling, a local resident who died in a entrada against the Seminole.

Early on 19th century [edit]

Appling was the political, educational, social, and religious center of the county. Most Appling were located Mt. Carmel Academy and Columbia Institute. Mt. Carmel Academy was run by the famous Southern educator, Moses Waddel; information technology was here that John C. Calhoun and William H. Crawford were educated. Columbia Institute was started past a certain gentleman going by the surname Bush; he was none other than the Bushnell of Revolutionary War submariner fame.^{[ commendation needed ]} During the Georgia Gold Rush of the 1820s, some successful prospecting and mining occurred in Columbia County.

The 1830s were a menstruum of major infrastructure projects and the coming of the railroad. When the Georgia Railroad was established, the judges determined that having trains' passing near Appling would disturb their proceedings; they insisted that the railway line that was built in the county from Atlanta to Augusta pass well below Appling. Construction of the Augusta Canal in the 1830s required Columbia County'southward cooperation, as the start of the canal and the locks were within the canton.

In 1855, the Courthouse in Appling received a major overhaul, and after the remodeling was consummate, the edifice was in more or less its present form. Despite the extensive project, builders retained the shell of the 1809–1812 edifice.

American Ceremonious State of war [edit]

Plantation agronomics based on slave labor was the major force of the economic system in the county prior to the American Civil War. Cotton product had expanded dramatically after the invention of the cotton gin, which enabled the tillage of short-staple cotton in the upland areas. Numerous vast plantations existed, the central houses of some of which nevertheless be. Thousands of slaves were brought to the county for labor. At times the slave population outnumbered the costless white population.

When Georgia seceded from the United States, George Walker Crawford, a native son of Columbia Canton, presided over the Secession Convention. He had previously been elected as the but Whig governor of the State. Men from the county served in several companies, among them the Hamilton Rangers and the Ramsey Guards, some in the 48th Georgia Volunteer Infantry Regiment, and some in the 22nd; almost all in Wright's Brigade. The troops assembled in front of the courthouse, then boarded trains at the depots: Berzelia, Sawdust, Dearing, and Thomson. No fighting occurred in the Canton during the state of war; nor was it directly in General Sherman'southward path. According to some family stories, some Union cavalry scouts or bummers entered the county. Near the war's stop, the remnants of the Confederate treasury were taken through Columbia County from Augusta to where the Chennault Raid occurred in neighboring Lincoln Canton.

The war took a heavy price on the white male population of the canton; a plaque behind the demote in the main Court bears the names of Columbia County's Confederate expressionless. During Reconstruction, the County was subject to military occupation. Because of meaning Ku Klux Klan violence in the late 1860s, it was attached to a special commune including Warren, Wilkes, and Oglethorpe counties. Additional Union forces were sent there to try to suppress the insurgents and their vigilante crimes against freedmen. They had been steadily reported by the Freedmen'southward Bureau, whose reports included a mob lynching of a freedman in Appling in July 1866.

Late 19th century [edit]

The railroad brought increased trade and population to Thomson. In 1870, the part of Columbia County which included Thomson, Dearing, and Wrightsboro, the 12,000 acre settlement established in 1768 past Colonial Governor James Wright every bit a settlement for displaced Quakers from North Carolina,^[5] was combined with parts of Warren Canton to form McDuffie Canton—named after Southward Carolina's U.S. Senator: George McDuffie. Thomson became the canton seat of the newly formed county.

During the 1870s, Appling suffered severe damage during a tornado. It never regained its former wealth and position in the canton before the Civil War.

During Reconstruction, the legislature passed an act to establish a public schoolhouse system for the starting time time. Like the residue of the state, the county developed segregated schools. The new communities of Harlem and Grovetown grew up. Harlem arose in the 1880s when a disgruntled railroad employee named Hicks, angered past saloons and Sabbath breaking in Sawdust, moved along the tracks one mile e and set up a rival town, consummate with its own depot.^{[ citation needed ]} Sawdust was eclipsed by Harlem, losing its depot and being absorbed by the newer town in the 1920s. The city was named after Harlem, New York. Grovetown, named for Grove Baptist Church, developed equally a summer resort in the 1880s for wealthy Augustans.

20th century [edit]

The 20th century brought many changes to the county, with new technologies and modernization. In 1917, Harlem was desperately damaged by fire. Bringing electricity to the county began. Men from Columbia County answered the telephone call of duty and served in both Earth Wars. Prior to World War II, the County was still primarily agricultural; it had escaped the boll weevil infestation that destroyed cotton crops in Mississippi and other parts of the South. The United states of america Ground forces built Camp (later Fort) Gordon, taking over a large portion of Richmond Canton and parts of Columbia, McDuffie, and Jefferson. The Army'southward keeping the fort after WWII created a new population and economical center for the county. During the 1950s, the Clarks Colina Dam was constructed, submerging considerable land in northern Columbia County under the new reservoir. Information technology prompted new residential development around the lake.

Between 1950 and 1990, the population increased dramatically. Agriculture declined, every bit farmland was redeveloped as suburban housing and community centers for persons employed in Augusta. Numerous personnel stationed at Fort Gordon eventually settled in Columbia County. During the 1960s, the schools were integrated largely without incident under the leadership of Superintendent John Pierce Blanchard. The unincorporated communities of Martinez (formerly Lulaville, named after a Cuban doctor) and Evans (possibly named subsequently Confederate General Clement A. Evans^[1]) became the population centers of the canton, since they were located nearest to Augusta.

During the 1980s and 1990s and demographic shifts, Evans gradually became the de facto county seat, as the Columbia County Authorities Heart and the Government Circuitous Addition were built in that location to serve the growing population in the county's eastern areas. Court functions remained in Appling since Georgia state police required that superior courtroom sessions must exist held at the canton seat and courthouse of each county at least twice a year. In 1998, the legislature changed the law to allow counties with unincorporated county seats to hold court sessions at annexes or satellite courthouses.^[1] With the 1993 passage of legislation requiring incorporated cities to provide at least iii municipal services, Appling was not able to maintain its status as an incorporated city. (There was question as to whether it was ever incorporated.^{[six] [7]}) Appling was one of 187 inactive cities in Georgia that lost its lease on June 1, 1995. Today it is nearly a expressionless town.^[1] Following these changes, the county proceeded to build an expansive Courthouse Annex in Evans, completed in 2001. Appling retains its condition as de jure county seat, just all governmental functions are carried out in Evans.^[1]

Historic sites in Appling include the Courthouse and Jail, the Marshall Monument, and various places associated with Kiokee Baptist Church. Other sites in the county include Stevens Creek Dam and Canal Locks, the birthplace of the comedian Oliver Hardy in Harlem, and diverse cemeteries.

Moves toward incorporation [edit]

For more than a decade, there take been discussions by county officials to comprise the county into a city. This issue first became moot in 1996 when the city of Augusta and Richmond County consolidated their governments. A state law mandating three mile buffer zones betwixt cities finer halted any efforts for Columbia County to incorporate, equally information technology was contiguous to Augusta-Richmond County.

In 2005, talks of incorporating the county into a city resurfaced when the Georgia state legislature abolished the three mile buffer zone, thus allowing Sandy Springs in North Fulton County (contiguous to Atlanta) to become a urban center. Columbia Canton Commission Chairman Ron Cantankerous led a campaign to bring the idea of county incorporation dorsum to life. However, it was referred to as "consolidation," since counties in Georgia lone cannot incorporate, but tin rather consolidate with an existing municipality inside the county. The plan was to hold a referendum to comprise the de facto county seat, Evans (currently a census-designated place), as a metropolis and so simultaneously consolidate information technology with Columbia County.

The initiative drew strong opposition from officials in Harlem and Grovetown, the county's only municipalities, citing that information technology would continue their cities from growing. The discussion "consolidation" besides had an firsthand negative connotation with many residents of Columbia County, seeing the example of the Augusta-Richmond County plagued with unintended consequences. A straw poll conducted during the county Republican Party primary election, showed strong opposition to the idea countywide. The County Commission Chairman Ron Cross has vowed to go on the issue live, but based on the negative sentiment from voters, information technology appears that at least for now, the idea of incorporation is back in hibernation.
