Wayne county was created on May 11, 1803 from lands ceded from
the Creek Indians and named after the Revolutionary War General
Anthony Wayne. The county seat is Jesup. In 1920 Brantley county
was created from portions of Wayne county. Some of local
communities are: Jesup, Odum, Gardi, Pendarvis, and Screven and
prior to 1920 Hortense, Nahunta, Waynesville, and Atkinson were
part of Wayne county. My name is Christine Martin and I am the
host of Wayne county. While I do not live in Wayne county, I
have a lot of family that have lived in Wayne. I will do my best
to make this a great site for researchers to come and find
information on their roots. To submit records or for questions
