Our online archival collection Finding Aids will be down for maintenance starting at 8:00am EDT on Thursday, May 15th, and may be unavailable for up to 3 hours. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
The Georgia Archives identifies, collects, provides access and preserves Georgia’s historical documents. Whether you love history, or simply want to know how we serve the citizens of Georgia, we invite you to explore our website or visit us in the City of Morrow, located just south of Atlanta. We look forward to serving you!
