General Information about Eatonton
Eatonton is a city in Putnam County, Georgia, United States. The population was 6,764 at the 2000 census. The city is the county seat of Putnam County[3].
Eatonton's claims to fame are its status as "Dairy Capital of Georgia" (in honor of its major industry, dairy farming), being the birthplace of Alice Walker (author of The Color Purple), Joel Chandler Harris (journalist and author of the Uncle Remus stories), Henry Grady Weaver (author of The Mainspring of Human Progress) and S. Truett Cathy (founder of Chick-Fil-A restaurants) and, until recently, being home to the Egyptian-styled Nuwaubian compound known as Tama-Re.
