The road from the east is a remnant of the Oakfuskee Path, the main stem of the upper trading route from the Savannah River to the Creek Indians of Georgia and Alabama. Beginning at present Augusta, it passed by way of Warrenton, Eatonton, Griffin, and the Flat Shoals of Flint River to Greenville, then continued to Oakfuskee Town, an early Upper Creek center on the Tallapoosa River in Alabama. White traders began using this way in the early 1700’s, and in time the route became an important pioneer trace and a leading stage road.
