History

The town was named in recognition of Stephen Swain, the state senator who introduced the bill for the county's creation in 1812. . However, in the 1930's, many of the town's streets and sidewalks were paved, and Swainsboro found itself at the intersection of two major national highways, US Highway 1 1 and US Highway 80 80, thus earning its city motto: "Where Main Streets Meet". Swainsboro is a city located in Emanuel County, Georgia. The town's name was changed to Paris at its incorporation on February 18, 1854, but three years later reverted to its current name.
