>From the publication: A HISTORU OF BURKE COUNTY, GEORGIA 1777-1950 pages 278-279. I quote "A post office in 1849 ; also mentioned in THE SOUTHERN WORLD, May 1, 1884. Located in Jenkins County on the Ogeechee River and supposedly named for the Brinson family, who were early settlers in the area." Not much I know! I may have more on this in a file somewhere. I have several articles that tell much of the Brinson Railroad, also. I am related to the Brinson family. From the Brinson brothers who came and brought their brides and settled here in Egypt, Effingham county Georgia. I shall keep my eye open for more material on Brinsonville for us.
