HistoryThe community was named after the ancient city of Palmyra, in Syria.[2] The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Palmyra as a town in 1840.[3] With the construction of the railroad through the area and concerns that the community's low elevation was prone to mosquito-borne diseases, business activity shifted to nearby Albany, and the town's population dwindled.[4] The Palmyra post office closed in 1891.[5] The town's municipal charter was repealed in 1995.[3] References1. ^{{GNIS|332597}} {{Lee County, Georgia}}{{coord missing|Georgia (U.S. state)}}{{GeorgiaUS-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web | url=https://georgiahistory.com/marker-monday-palmyra/ | title=Forgotten | work=Albany Herald | date=April 30, 2017 | accessdate=3 April 2019 | author=Gosa, Jon}} 3. ^1 {{cite book | url=http://www.kenkrakow.com/gpn/p.pdf | title=Georgia Place-Names: Their History and Origins | publisher=Winship Press | author=Krakow, Kenneth K. | year=1975 | location=Macon, GA | pages=170 | isbn=0-915430-00-2}} 4. ^{{cite web | url=https://georgiahistory.com/marker-monday-palmyra/ | title=Marker Monday: Palmyra | publisher=Georgia Historical Society | accessdate=3 April 2019}} 5. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?state=GA | title=Post Offices | publisher=Jim Forte Postal History | accessdate=3 April 2019}} 2 : Former municipalities in Georgia (U.S. state)|Unincorporated communities in Lee County, Georgia |
