County Formation and John Twiggs

Georgia created Twiggs County from part of Wilkinson County in 1809. It became the state’s thirty-seventh county and was named for John Twiggs, a Revolutionary War officer and major general in the Georgia militia.

Marion served as the first county seat. The seat moved to Jeffersonville during the 1850s, and the new town was named in honor of former U.S. president Thomas Jefferson.

Jeffersonville and the County Courthouse

Jeffersonville developed as the county’s administrative and commercial center. A fire destroyed the courthouse and many records in 1901, and the present Twiggs County Courthouse was completed in 1904.

The city continues to contain county government and is promoted as being close to the geographic center of Georgia.

Agriculture, Forestry, and Transportation

Cotton, corn, peanuts, livestock, and pine forestry have long shaped land use. Interstate 16 crosses the county between Macon and Savannah and gives local industries access to regional freight routes.

Dry Branch has close ties to the Macon area, while eastern Twiggs County remains more rural and dependent on farming, forestry, and small local businesses.

Ocmulgee River and Wetland Habitat

The Ocmulgee River forms an important western geographic reference. Bond Swamp National Wildlife Refuge protects river-bottom forest, wetlands, and wildlife habitat near the county and the greater Macon region.
