Hello and welcome to the Genealogy Trails website for Coweta
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.

The land for
Lee, Muscogee, Troup, Coweta, and Carroll counties was ceded by the
Creek people in the 1825 Treaty of Indian Springs. The counties'
boundaries were created by the Georgia General Assembly on June 9,
1826, but they were not named until December 14, 1826. Coweta County
was named for the Koweta Indians (a sect of the Creek Indian Tribe),
which had several towns in and around present day Coweta.
The county seat is Newnan, Georgia
