 Clinch County, the 94th
county formed in Georgia, was created from portions of Ware and
Lowndes counties in 1850. The county was named for General Duncan
Clinch, who served in the War of 1812, defeated the Seminole Indian
Chief Osceola in Florida, and later served in the U.S. Congress.
Part of the Okefenokee
Wildlife Refuge lies in Clinch County. Both the St. Mary's and
Suwannee Rivers rise within the swamp. Chosen by Travel and Leisure
magazine as one of the "ten best boat rides in the world," the park's
boat tours are a twisting and turning adventure through the
Okenfenokee Swamp.
