Immersed in the natural beauty of pine forests and fertile river lands Jeff Davis County was first established in 1870. The Macon & Brunswick Railroad, under the direction of railroad engineer George H. Hazlehurst, built a depot at Mile Post 8 1/2 at the halfway point between Brunswick and Macon. In 1905, the Georgia Legislature
created Jeff Davis County from parts of Appling and Coffee Counties. The small community of Hazlehurst, which had sprung forth around the depot, was named after Colonel Hazlehurst at his request and became the county
seat.
