Berrien County was created 25
February 1856 out of portions of Coffee, Irwin and Lowndes counties by an
act of the Georgia General Assembly. Berrien County, in South Georgia,
and one of the most progressive in the wire-grass section, was named in
honor of John McPherson Berrien, who for many years represented Georgia in
the United States Senate. The town of Allapaha, on the Brunswick and Western Railroad of the Plant System, has in the corporate limits a population of 429, and in its entire district 1,986. Thus we have in Berrien county
five good towns, the largest of which, Tifton, described in the beginning
of this sketch, did not appear on the census report of 1890, but in the
last ten years has shown a rapid growth. Near Lenox on the Georgia
Southern and Florida Railroad is a large brickyard. At Sparks a
company has been organized for manufacturing brick and building materials,
and for operating gins and planning-mills. This
county is available for adoption | ||||||||||||||||
