Georgia Historical Society Historical Markers

The Georgia Historical Society has administered GA's historical marker program since 1998, erecting hundreds of new markers. GA's historical marker program was begun by the GA Historical Commission in 1953 and continued by the GA Department of Natural Resources. Their markers are now maintained by the Society. With over 3,000 markers, it is 2nd to Texas in state markers.
