Hello and welcome to the Genealogy Trails website for Dade
County, Georgia.
This County is available for adoption.
Our goal at Genealogy Trails is to help
you track your ancestors through time and place by transcribing
genealogical and historical data and placing it online for the free use
of all researchers.
This is a continuation of our original,
Illinois Genealogy Trails History and Genealogy Project and we are
excited about this opportunity to expand into other states. We welcome
your feedback and comments, and your data contributions.

dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this
project be as successful as it can be.

please contact us.
Any data we come across will be added to this

Dade County was
established in 1837 and was named for Major Francis Langhorne Dade, who
was killed in the Dade Massacre by Seminole Indians in December, 1835.
The first settlers of Dade County won the land in Georgia's land
lottery and came to work in coke and coal mines.
Georgia did not have a road connecting to Dade County until the
purchase of Cloudland Canyon in 1939. The county could only be accessed
through Alabama and Tennessee until then.
The county seat is
Trenton, Georgia
Cities and towns
New England -- Rising Fawn -- Trenton -- Wildwood
