Charlton }}Charlton County is the southernmost county of the U.S. state of Georgia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 12,171.[2] The county seat is Folkston.[3] HistoryCharlton County was created from a portion of Camden County, Georgia by an act of the Georgia General Assembly on February 18, 1854.[4] The original county seat was at Trader's Hill, until 1901. Additional lands from Ware County, Georgia, were added to Charlton's borders by an 1855 act of the General Assembly. In 1856, an additional legislative act redefined the Charlton–Camden borders again with each county ceding land to the other.[5] The county is named for Robert Milledge Charlton, a U. S. Senator from Georgia.[6] GeographyAccording to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of {{convert|782|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|774|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|8.8|sqmi}} (1.1%) is water.[7] It is the fifth-largest county by area in Georgia.
