| On Aug. 15, 1917, the General Assembly
proposed a constitutional amendment to create Atkinson County
from the southern half of Coffee County and a small portion along
the northern border of Clinch County. Georgia voters ratified
the constitutional amendment in the Nov. 5, 1918 general election,
which is considered the date of Atkinson County's creation. |
