City in Georgia, United States
Oconee is a city in Washington County , Georgia , United States. The population was 197 in 2020.
History [ edit ]
The city's name derives from the Oconee people (also known as the Hitchiti), a Muskogean -speaking tribe who inhabited central Georgia at time of contact with European-American settlers. The Oconee lived in present-day Baldwin County, Georgia at a settlement known as Oconee Old Town, later moving to the Chattahoochee River in the early 18th century. The name exists in several variations, including Ocone, Oconi, Ocony, and Ekwoni.[4]
The city of Oconee was named after the river that bears the tribe's name. It was founded in the early 1840s, when the railroad was extended to that point.[5]
The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Oconee as a town in 1876.[6]
