Courthouse Details: Ware County's first courthouse was a log building at Waresborough (1825), the original county seat. A larger wooden building was erected and served as courthouse until the county seat moved to Waycross in 1873, where a small wooden structure was built. This building soon burned, and the older courthouse at Waresborough was taken apart and reconstructed in Waycross. A two-story brick courthouse with tower was built in 1891. This served as Ware County courthouse until the current building -- constructed of Georgia marble -- was completed in 1957. - External Identifiers:
