Glynn County Wills and Estates
Pictured is Christ Church on St. Simons Island, organized in 1736 by
John and Charles Wesley, the Sidney Lanier Bridge and scenes of
Brunswick.
General Oglethorpe first put settlers on St. Simons Island in 1836; the
transport was primarily Englishmen. The first parish church was located
on the island. After 1848 when Oglethorpe won the land war with Spain
and disbanded his Georgia regiment and returned to England, settlers
began to desert the military post and find land grants throughout the
county. Many of them removed to McIntosh and Liberty Counties. The
Colonial period was divided by the parishs of St. David, St. Parick and
St. Jones, organized in 1758.Glynn County was created in 1777 and named
in honor of John Glynn, a member of the British House of Commons who
defended the cause of the American Colonies in the difficulties which
led to the Revolutionary War. Research should also include the Colonial
Records of Georgia by Candler; Mcintosh and Liberty Counties.
