Do you know of Horkan ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Horkan. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Horkan.<1>

Our sources for Horkan (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Horkan other than they indicate that Horkan would be found somewhere in Colquitt County, Georgia.
