Statement of Purpose
Vanishing South Georgia exists primarily to bring attention to the myriad forms of vernacular architecture once common throughout the region. Many of these structures were built during the sharecropping and tenant farming eras, and as a result have long ago been abandoned.
A dual purpose is to bring attention to the countless forgotten villages and towns which have all but disappeared with the passing of the railroads and agricultural dominance. In Vanishing South Georgia, I hope to give them a permanent photographic presence for future generations, whether their interests be trivial, genealogical, or historical.
Geographical Focus
For the purposes of this site, I consider South Georgia to be the southern half of the state, roughly divided by the counties of Muscogee, Talbot, Taylor, Crawford, Peach, Houston, Twiggs, Wilkinson, Johnson, Emanuel, Jenkins, and Screven.-
