\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe first courthouse was a log structure built in Franklinville in 1828. When Lowndesville was named the county seat in 1833, the wooden courthouse was moved from Franklinville. The next year, a new courthouse was built in Lowndesville, which in 1837 was renamed Troupville. A new courthouse was built in Lowndes in 1842 which burned in 1858. After that, the county seat was removed to Valdosta and another courthouse was built, which burned in 1869.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOne must go into the field in order to find lost records. By that, I mean that it is up to genealogists to locate that which was lost, or thought to be lost. Take the example of a researcher whose recent visit to the Lowndes Historical Museum in Valdosta, Georgia found some surprises. The Courthouse had burned down in 1890, however, someone grabbed a bunch of books and papers and took them home. All these years later, the grandchildren are bringing them to the Historical Society where they are being transcribed!\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\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-479","county","type-county","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nLowndes - 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=lowndes\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Lowndes - Georgia Pioneers\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Lowndes County Wills, Estates, Marriages The first courthouse was a log structure built in Franklinville in 1828.
