The City
of Whitesburg, Georgia, was settled in 1860 and was incorporated in 1874, with five councilmen elected to govern the town. Mr.
W.W. Harris was chosen from the five as mayor. The city had 13 business houses, a stage business operated by W.H. Baker,
a depot, school, Baptist and Methodist churches, a restaurant, a planing mill and three taverns.
Whitesburg became
the first rail center of Carroll County. In fact, the town was named in honor of Andrew J. White, an official of the
railroad who was well liked by the townspeople. Freight was shipped from Savannah to Whitesburg and then distributed
to a large area of west Georgia.
The city of
Whitesburg is a busy, progressive place with a population of about 1,000. It's small-town flavor coupled with many
