Appling County was created on Dec. 15, 1818 by an act of the
General Assembly. The new county was formed from Creek lands
ceded in the Treaty of Fort Jackson (1814) and the Treaty of
the Creek Agency (1818).
In 1824, the legislature created Ware County from Appling
County. Also, portions of Appling County were used to create
the following counties: Pierce (1857), Jeff Davis (1905), and
Bacon (1914).
