Darien, a small coastal city in McIntosh County, Georgia, has a very interesting history spanning several hundred years. Darien itself was founded in 1736! For information on how, why, when and by whom check out the links on this page.
Much of the information in this section is taken directly from "Memories Of McIntosh," a brief history of McIntosh County, Darien and Sapelo, just one of several splendid works from Buddy Sullivan. His books can be obtained at Amazon.com, in local shops, at the Darien Chamber of Commerce and The Darien News (P.O. Box 496, Darien, GA 31305).
