Hello
and welcome to the Genealogy Trails website for Columbia County,
Georgia.
This County is available for adoption.
Our goal at Genealogy Trails is to help you track your ancestors
through time and place by transcribing genealogical and historical data
and placing it online for the free use of all researchers.
This is a
continuation of our original, Illinois Genealogy Trails History and
Genealogy Project and we are excited about this opportunity to expand
into other states. We welcome your feedback and comments, and your data
contributions.
If you think you might be interested in joining our group, view our Volunteer Page for further information and
instructions on signing up. We're looking for folks who share our
dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this
project be as successful as it can be.
If you have data that you would like to have posted on this website,
please contact us.
Any
data we come across will be added to this site.
We regret that we are unable to perform any personal research for you.
If you would like to be
kept informed of our state and county website updates, subscribe to our

The county seat is Appling,
Georgia. Appling is an unincorporated area, making Columbia one of only

Columbia County was formed by an act of the Legislature of Georgia on
December 10, 1790 from part of Richmond County (which was one of
Georgia's original seven counties; St. Paul's Parish became Richmond
County in 1777).
The area had been home to Creek, Euchee, and Cherokee Indians prior to
colonization
