Buffington, Georgia
Unincorporated community in Georgia, U.S.
Buffington is an unincorporated community in Cherokee County, Georgia, United States.[1] It began as the location of Fort Buffington, one of the Cherokee Removal Forts used to contain the Cherokee before the beginning of the Trail of Tears in 1838.[2] After this time, Fort Buffington was either dismantled or fell into ruin, and only a state historical marker along State Route 20 stands to identify its former site. Today, Buffington is transforming from a rural to suburban community.
