Seminloe Coun ty  

On July 8, 1920, a state constitutional amendment was proposed to establish a new county. It was later ratified on November 2. The land for the new county was taken from Decatur and Early counties. The county was named after the Seminole tribe of Native Americans who once inhabited the Chattahoochee River basin in the area. However, European settlement forced them to relocate to the Florida Everglades. Legend has it that the renowned Seminole chief Osceola was born in what is now known as Seminole County. Interestingly, this is the only county in Georgia that shares borders with both Alabama and Florida.
