Do you know of Reedy Springs ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Reedy Springs. 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 Reedy Springs.<1>

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

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1873 and closed  in 1901.
