History
A post office called The Rock was established in 1853. The community was named for a rock formation near the original town site.

The Georgia General Assembly incorporated The Rock as a town in 1877. The town's municipal charter was repealed in 1995.

In 1847, the Central of Georgia Railway opened its Thomaston to Barnesville line, which ran through The Rock. In 1963, the Southern Railway (U.S.) acquired the Central of Georgia, and with it, the line in The Rock. When the Southern merged with the N&W to form the Norfolk Southern Railway in 1982, the line in The Rock, as well as all former CofG trackage, went to NS. In 2016, NS leased the line to its current operator, CaterParrot Railnet.
