Fort Scott was built in 1816 on the site in Land Lot Number 224 in the 21st District of Decatur County, Georgia, 16 miles southwest of Bainbridge, and was abandoned in 1821. The monument originally stood there before being moved to its present location after the Fort Scott site was inundated by Jim Woodruff Reservoir.
