Madison, Georgia  

Madison Georgia Home Page

Welcome!
Located in the Town General Sherman refused to burn, picturesque Madison is about
80 miles east of Atlanta, and 25 miles south of Athens, in Georgia's Lake Country.
Our colorful past, historic homes, and community spirit give Madison its small town
charm -- but it is our location near world-class golfing, sailing and fishing on Lake Oconee,
and our close proximity to Atlanta, as well as the University of Georgia, that makes
us one of Georgia's best kept secrets!

 

2010 - Celebrating our Chapter's Centennial Year! 


Our Roots...
On October 11, 1909, Mrs. Caroline Hardee Godfrey, State Regent of the Georgia Society of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, met with thirteen ladies at the home of Mrs. Sue Reid Walton Manley to discuss organizing a DAR Chapter in Madison. Several months later, on March 2, 1910, the Madison Chapter was officially organized, and elected the following officers: Mrs. Sue Reid Walton Manley, Regent; Mrs. Kittie Fitzpatrick, Vice Regent; Mrs. Lula Atkinson, Recording Secretary; Mrs. Mary Walton Trammell Newton, Corresponding Secretary; Mrs. Lula Holland, Treasurer; Miss Bessie Walton, Registrar; and Mrs. Anna Trammell, Historian. Since that time, the Henry Walton Chapter has continued to serve and follow the NSDAR Motto: "God, Home, and Country."

Henry Walton, the Patriot Ancestor of several Charter Members, was selected as the name for the new Chapter. Captain Walton, of Brunswick County, Virginia, served in the American Revolution, qualifying as Captain in the Army in 1777.
