Geography

Martinez is located in eastern Columbia County at 33°30′58N 82°6′0″W / 33.51611°N 82.10000°W / 33.51611; -82.10000 (33.516089, -82.100024).[4] It is bordered to the southeast by the city of AugustainRichmond County. To the north and northwest is the CDP of Evans. Interstate 20 forms the short southern boundary of Martinez, with access from Exits 194 (Georgia State Route 383/South Belair Road) and 195 (Wheeler Road).

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 14.6 square miles (37.9 km2), of which 14.5 square miles (37.6 km2) is land and 0.12 square miles (0.3 km2), or 0.76%, is water.[5]

Martinez has an elevation of 361 feet (110 m) above sea level, about 200 feet (61 m) higher than downtown Augusta. The areas of the CDP closest to the Richmond County line tend to be relatively flat, while land further west is hillier. Trees in Martinez are seen mainly in the subdivisions, as the main roads are crowded with businesses. They include pine, oak, sweet gum, hickory, and a variety of other species.

History

The founder was José Antonio Saldivar Y Martinez, a wealthy man from Camagüey Cuba. He bought land in Columbia County in 1869 and named it El Cordero Ranch which Cordero means Lamb. His children were: Robert Martinez, Dolores Delgarde, Fannie Martinez and Marie Perrin. Upon the death of Marie in 1936 in Bath, Georgia, Robert lived in Cuba, and both Dolores and Fannie in Jacksonville, Florida.[6]

On November 5, 1876, Marie Martinez married Mr. George Perrin at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Augusta, Georgia[7]. The 1880 US Census indicates George was a druggist and was 29 years old. Marie was 22, and they resided on Broad Street #1109. The couple had one son, Thomas Wright Perrin, born on August 23, 1885. El Cordero Ranch is now only 20 acres in size. His old hacienda and several buildings, barns and a water tower still stand off Old Ferry Road in Martinez (near the intersection of River Watch Parkway and Baston Road). It's private property not open to the public.

José Antonio Saldivar y Martinez died on January 26, 1891 and is buried at Evergreen Cemetery in Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida.[8]
