Three years later the land was distributed by the 1805 Georgia Land Lottery. After the second lottery (1807), five new counties were created from parts of Baldwin and Wilkinson Counties, viz: Morgan, Randolph (later Jasper), Jones, Putnam, and Telfair. Later, portions of Wilkinson and Hancock Counties were added. The county was named after Abraham Baldwin; Milledgeville was named after the first governor of Georgia, John Milledge. Unfortunately, the first courthouse burned down in 1861. Nevertheless, most of the records survived. Baldwin County is centrally located and at one time was the capital of Georgia. The records available to the genealogists are extensive on the Georgia Pioneers website.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-078e188 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"078e188\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Buchanan, Buckner, Devereaux, Flewellen, Hammond, Ingram, Moore, Redding,Robinson,Rockwell, Tapley, and Thomas<\/p><h2>Baldwin County Images of Wills and Estates<\/h2><p>Will Book A 1806-1829 (abstracts)<br \/>Marriages Marriage Book A 1806-1820<br \/>Marriages 1806-1851<br \/>Marriages from newspapers 1885-1886<\/p><h2>Indexes to Probate Records<\/h2><p>Will Book B 1829-1868<br \/>Will Book C 1868-1936<br \/>Annual Returns, Book A 1813-1820<br \/>Annual Returns, Book B 1820-1824<br \/>Annual Returns, Book C 1824-1831<br \/>Annual Returns, Book D 1831-1842<br \/>Annual Returns, Book E 1839-1856<br \/>Estate Records Book D, 1808-1827<br \/>Inferior Court Appearance Docket 1806-1837<br \/>Inferior Court Docket 1832-1873<\/p><h2>Images of Probate Records<\/h2><p>1819 County Order Book<br \/>Applicants of Widows of the late war<br \/>Orphans of Britton and Indians<br \/>Revolutionary War Officers and soldiers<br \/>Persons who served in the Seminole War<br \/>1820 Land Lottery (Those who were eligible to draw) (digital images)<br \/>1820 Tax Digest<br \/>1820 Baldwin County Land Lottery<\/p><h2>Memoirs of Georgia<\/h2><p>Baldwin County Residents (Memoirs of Georgia)<\/p><h2>Images of Newspapers<\/h2><p>The Southern Recorder 1826 to 1829<br \/>List of Letters published July 13, 1828<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-405","county","type-county","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Baldwin - Georgia Pioneers<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/georgiapioneers.com\/?county=baldwin\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Baldwin - Georgia Pioneers\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Baldwin County Marriages, Wills, Estates, Marriages, Newspapers, Land Lotteries Baldwin County was created in 1803 by the Creek Cessions of June 1802.
