    1. Re: [GACOFFEE] Location of Wooten, Coffee Co., Georgia
    2. Noles, Robert B.
    3. Hi Folks, Leesburg is in Lee County, Georgia. I was asking about a location in Coffee County that was called Wooten in the 1900 Census. Wooten, Coffee Co., Georgia is no longer listed on any map that I have seen (even one for 1899). I believe someone has indicated that the area referred to as Wooten, Coffee County in the 1900 Census is now apart of Broxton. Is that correct?
