About Fort Gaines, GA

The present town of Fort Gaines was founded in 1816 as protection against the indigenous Creeks and prospered due to riverboat trade. Though it was named for General Edmund Pendleton Gaines, he did not arrive there with the 4th Infantry of the United States Army until 1816. A fort of the same name had been built in 1814 nearby on the Chattachoochee River. In 1854, Fort Gaines was designated seat of the newly formed Clay County. According to The Floridian newspaper of 1840, there were in Fort Gaines the Chattahoochee Female College and the Independent College for Young Men, boarding schools (not colleges as that word is used today).
