Barnesville, Georgia was once known as the “Buggy Capital of the South.” One of the more prominent buggy companies was J. G. Smith’s Barnesville Buggies. Jackson Greenleaf Smith was born in Buffalo, New York and relocated to Georgia after the Civil War.

Located on the town square, the store front is a contributing factor to the Barnesville Historic District. Barnesville celebrates Buggy Days every September. More information can be found here.
