Beautiful!
J. W. Golucke designed about 25 Georgia courthouses, including the one in Tattnall County. The DeKalb courthouse is considered his masterpiece. Will someone who knows German tell me how his name should be pronounced?
Yes, he did, John. If you search his name on Vanishing South Georgia you should find quite a few! Read about his troubles surrounding the Baker County Courthouse here: http://vanishingsouthgeorgia.com/2010/05/11/baker-county-courthouse-1900-newton/
