Unincorporated community in Georgia, U.S. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Magnolia is an unincorporated community in Clinch County, in the U.S. state of Georgia.[1]
An old variant name was "Polk".[1] A post office called Polk was established in 1851, the name was changed to Magnolia in 1852, and the post office closed in 1861.[2] The present name is after a grove of magnolia trees near the original town site.[3]
The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Magnolia as a town in 1854; the town's municipal charter was repealed in 1995.[3]
Magnolia once held the county seat, a courthouse having built at the site in 1852.[4] The courthouse burned to the ground in 1856, at which time the county seat was transferred to Homerville.[4]
