Hall County, the forty-fourth county of Georgia, was created by an act of the Georgia General Assembly dated December 19, 1818, from territory originally part of the Cherokee nation and from land in Franklin and Jackson Counties. It was named for Lyman Hall, one of Georgia’s three signers of the Declaration of Independence. Habersham, Gwinnett, and Walton Counties were created by the same act.
