Schley County
Schley County got its territory from the division of Marion, Macon and Sumter counties in 1857. It is named for William Schley, jurist, congressman and governor of Georgia. The county seat, Ellaville, is named for the daughter of the man who sold land for the town site. It was incorporated in 1859, but the nearby community of Pond Town had been settled since 1812.
