Twiggs County Courthouse-Jeffersonville, Georgia - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

In 1901, Twiggs County's courthouse was destroyed by fire. Construction of the present courthouse began in 1902 and was completed in 1904. The courthouse was renovated in 1979, followed by a major renovation and substantial expansion of the structure begun in 1996 and completed in 2003. (visit link)

This very handsome courthouse is very well taken care of and is impressive for a small county in rural Georgia. The population of the county is just slightly over 10,000. I estimated that each man woman and child in this county probably owns several bricks in this beautiful structure.
