The Rock has a post office with ZIP code 30285,[2] [3] Barnesville , Hannahs Mill , Meansville , and Yatesville .
History
[ edit ]
A post office called The Rock was established in 1853.[4] [5]
The Georgia General Assembly incorporated The Rock as a town in 1877.[6] [5]
In 1847, the Central of Georgia Railway opened its Thomaston to Barnesville line, which ran through The Rock. In 1963, the Southern Railway (U.S.) acquired the Central of Georgia, and with it, the line in The Rock. When the Southern merged with the N&W to form the Norfolk Southern Railway in 1982, the line in The Rock, as well as all former CofG trackage, went to NS. In 2016, NS leased the line to its current operator, CaterParrot Railnet.
