Jackson Argus – Week of December 6, 1895
The new town of Fitzgerald, which has just been established in South Georgia by
a colony of Northern immigrants, promises to be a small-sized wonder in town
building.  It is three months old and has 1,500 inhabitants already.   Its
promoters expect to lay claim to a population of 10,000 within a few more
months.   It is the center of the Grand Army Colony, which is settling in Wilcox
and Irwin counties, Georgia
