We found this site on way to Florida. There was sign on Interstate 75 directing us to where it was. Jefferson Davis was captured at this site on May 9, 1865. It is a 13 acre site.
There were historic markers, museum and very good film on capture. There also was a gift shop where I purchased several books and other items.
My husband and I were glad we found the place and stopped It is run by Irwin County, Georgia.. It is located at 338 Jeff Davis Park Road in Fitzgerald, Georgia. It is 14 miles east of I- 75.
