Template:Linkless-date Coffee Road as it became known, was a supply trail cut through the southern Georgia frontier by General John E. Coffee, with the help of Thomas Swain. The trail was built in the early 1800's and ran from Jacksonville, GA to Tallahassee, FL. The trail was initially built to carry munitions of war to Florida Territory to fight the Indians during the Creek Wars, but was later used by settlers moving into the Georgia frontier.
