Douglas County is situated within the great state of Georgia in the United States. It was established on October 17, 1870, and is named after the renowned orator and Illinois politician, Stephen A. Douglas. As a principal advocate of popular sovereignty, Douglas played a pivotal role in the expanding of the United States.
The county is part of the Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswell Metropolitan Statistical Area. Covering an area of approximately 200 square miles, Douglasville serves as the county seat. Douglas County has witnessed significant growth over the years, largely due to its proximity to Atlanta.
In the early days, Creek and Cherokee Native American tribes occupied the region. Later, European settlers came to the area, and the Native Americans were forcibly moved in the 1830s in what became known as the Trail of Tears. As a result, settlers began to establish communities, with agriculture and commerce shaping the early economy.
Douglas County experienced an upheaval during the Civil War when both Union and Confederate forces crisscrossed its borders. Sweetwater Creek State Park, located in the county, is home to the ruins of the New Manchester Manufacturing Company textile mill, which was burned down by Union forces in 1864.
A fun fact about Douglas County is that it has several noteworthy landmarks, such as the aforementioned Sweetwater Creek State Park, with its trails, wooded areas, and a beautiful 215-acre lake ideal for fishing and paddling. The park also has hidden native Cherokee history that visitors can explore at the Visitor's Center.
