Bushnell is an unincorporated community in Coffee County, in the U.S. state of Georgia.[1]
History
[edit | edit source]The community was named after G. L. Bush, a local politician.[2] A post office called Bushnell was in operation from 1903 until 1922.[3] The Georgia General Assembly incorporated the place as the "Town of Bushnell" in 1907, with the town corporate limits extending in a two-mile (3.2 km) radius from the Atlanta, Birming and Atlantic Railroad depot.[4] The town's charter was legislatively repealed less than one year later in 1908.[2]
