Camilla Seafood

South Georgians love seafood, largely due to their proximity to two coasts. Most Southeast Georgians live within an hour of the Atlantic Ocean while a majority in Southwest Georgia are nearly as close to the Gulf of Mexico.

Most towns of any size traditionally have a fishmonger; this location has been home to Camilla Seafood, and most recently, Terry’s Fish Market.

General Store, Pebble City

Judy Burnett writes: This store belonged to Mr.John Akridge in early 1970’s. It had the high glass counters. You could get anything from nails to candy to gas from the bubble top hand cranked pumps. It even had an elevator in the back right corner according to my husband who shopped there with his grandfather. Mr. Akridge lived upstairs.
