County Formation and Jett Thomas
Georgia created Thomas County from parts of Decatur and Irwin counties in 1825. It became the state’s sixty-third county and was named for Jett Thomas, a War of 1812 military figure who also built the first university building in Athens.
Thomasville became the county seat and developed as the legal and commercial center for the surrounding plantation and farming district.
Winter Resorts, Estates, and Quail Country
Thomasville became a fashionable winter resort for wealthy northern visitors during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Large estates, hunting preserves, and Victorian buildings remain part of the county landscape.
The Lapham-Patterson House, the Big Oak, historic plantations, and the annual Rose Show and Festival represent the county’s best-known cultural attractions.
Agriculture, Education, and Regional Services
Cotton once dominated the plantation economy, but tobacco, pears, peaches, rice, livestock, and other crops created a more diversified agricultural base. Modern employment also includes health care, retail, manufacturing, and public services.
Thomas University and Southern Regional Technical College strengthen Thomasville’s role as an education center for south Georgia and north Florida.
