Eaily History of Talbotton.
To an enquiry as to whether Uncle
John Maund kuew anything of.the early
history of Talbotton, he replied:
“Well, I should think so. I carried
| ihe grape vine for the surveyor,old Biii
McMurray, who laid it out. ‘ In fact, 1
■ cut the grape vine in Wilson's creek, for
which he paid me a quarter. That w.iS in
1827 or 1828, I think. Talbotton is lo
cated on lot 266. l6th district, formerly
Muscogee county, and was drawn by a
man named Gilbert, who gave it to his
son, but afterwards took it away from
him when it was decide x to locate Tal
bott mon it. There was a groat deal of
exci -ment over Ihe location of the coun
ty site at tlio time, the oilier candidate
tor the location being Centrevilie, about
five miles east of Talbotton. and each
place run a man for the Legislature.
Zack W hite was Talbotton‘a candidate
and Ichabod Cox. Centreville's, and the
latter was elected, but unfortunately for
Centreville, the school of politics to which
Cox belonged was iu minority in the leg
islature, and Talbotton*s name was in
sen ad in the bill despite his efforts. Af
ter the puss .go of the bill, Mr Cox rose
m his seat and asked to be allowed to
change his name (meaning from the nay*
to the yeas), when a wag belonging to
the opposition said he would second the
gentleman's request aud would suggest
that his uauae be changed to Cockadoo
de. This created an uproar and tha
change was never in.ide.
The first court house was a log one and
located on the nurinwest corner of the
present court lot, aud I have o.'teu seeu
us many as ti iy fights in one night in it,
and more broken noses aud bunged eyes
than you could count. Those were good
old days belore the supremacy of pistols,
when a man like myself stood some
showing, and a knock down and drag
out did not necessitate a funeral. This
court room was used till the completion
of ihe present court house in 1831 which
was built by Charles aud John N Burch.
The town aud the-' sec ion was visit and by
a terrible storm in 1832, whi.-li did gre.it
damage, knock*ng out the gable ends of
the court house. There have been 100
sessions of tuc superior court held in this
county, 101 of which 1 have attended
was providentially prevented from at
tending the other tour. Twelve judges
administered justice iu that, temple, the
first of whom was Waiter T Colquitt,who
was followed by G E The mas, Alfred Iver
son, Joseph Sturgis, M J Wellooru, Rob
eia B Alexander, E 11 Worrill, James
Johnson, Martin J Crawford, E M Bu t,
J L Wimberly and J T Willis.
