Campbell County was created by an act of the Georgia Legislature on December 20, 1828, and took lands from Carroll County, Coweta County, Dekalb County, and Fayette County. Campbell County was 12 miles in length, 16 miles in width, and totaled 192 square miles.
Campbell County was named in honor of Colonel Duncan Campbell who, along with James Meriwether, negotiated the Indian Springs Treaty with Chief William McIntosh which ceded Creek Indian land to the government on February 12, 1825. |
