Brooks, Fayette Co, Georgia, USA



 


Notizen:
As of the census of 2000, there were 553 people, 195 households, and 165 families residing in the town.



Before white settlers came on the land, Creek Indians lived in the Brooks area. The first white settlers to reside in the area were the Haisten family. At first the town was called Haistentown but, finally after several other names, Brooks became the name of the town in 1905. Brooks was named after a local planter, Hillery Brooks, who gave a lot to the construction of the railroad and a much needed depot. During the Civil War the town sent many young men to fight in the Confederate Army. Several of these men were killed during the war.
