This is presently home to the Ware Visiting Nurses Service, but Tom Chandler notes that it was originally the Timber Protection Organization (TPO) office.

There are some nice older graves in the cemetery. I’m sharing a few examples. These were pioneers of Wiregrass Georgia.
I always like finding these wooden markers. They were much more common in the past but many have been lost to the elements or replaced with more permanent markers.
James T. (4 June 1831-17 March 1887) & Martha (1 February 1833-17 April 1900) Touchton. The stone of James is signed by the carvers, Wilcox & Lamance of Brunswick.
George H. Hutto (1 September 1895-6 October 1918) He gave his life for his country.
Randall Skinner, Private, Captain’s Knight’s & Johnston’s Company, 81st Regiment, Georgia Militia, Indian Wars (4 January 1802-15 April 1865)
Edmund Mathis, Private, Carter’s Independents, Indian Wars, (1776-1860)

Fargo, Georgia
Fargo is one of the most isolated towns in Georgia. And with a population under 400, it’s definitely got a small town feel. Its isolation is what I like best about it, but amazingly, it has a restaurant and nice motel. The people are friendly, the natural scenery is unparalleled, and the Okefenokee Swamp and Suwannee River are just waiting to be explored.

Downtown Fargo
This stretch of US 441 constitutes Fargo’s “Main Street”. There’s a convenience store and the Suwannee River Cafe across the road and the buildings seen here are associated with Suwannee River Outfitters. They’re the go-to guides and equipment specialists for anything you might want to do in the Okefenokee Swamp or Suwannee River.
If you’re planning a trip to the area and need help getting around, call them at 912-637-5114. They’ll be glad to help you.

Suwannee River Cafe, Fargo
This is a great little restaurant and the employees are some of the friendliest you’ll find. They’re used to people being surprised by Fargo’s isolation and they’re glad to give you advice, directions, and any tips you might need on rambling in the area. It’s worth a stop and if you’re hungry, it’s the only restaurant in town. They also have a nice collection of local relics, as well as some beautiful handmade canes and walking sticks for sale.
