Discover Omaha
Omaha, in the northwest corner of Stewart County near the Chattahoochee River, lies near the scenes of the Creek War of 1836. One mile north stood Fort McCreary, built that year to defend Georgia's frontier along the river and garrisoned by U.S. soldiers and Georgia volunteers. On June 9, 1836, at the Battle of Shepherd's Plantation, the most aggressive Creek attack of that war, settlers and volunteers from Forts Ingersol, Jones and McCreary under Major Henry W. Jernigan and Captain Hamilton Garmany fought the Creeks; a relief column from Fort McCreary saved Garmany's militia company, and Stewart County lost four men killed. Three unknown soldiers are buried on the crest of the fort, and a wooden blockhouse was reconstructed there in 1996.
More about Omaha
The town of Omaha was founded in 1891, when the railroad arrived, and incorporated that same year; its charter was dissolved in 1995. Omaha even appears in James Joyce's novel Ulysses, as the fictional setting of a lynching mentioned in a newspaper headline.
