I’ve not been able to find much history regarding the Morven depot, but it appears to be in need of stabilization. It was built by the South Georgia Railway at the end of the 19th century. I hope the town can rally around it and restore it before it’s too late. S. W. Edmondson writes: …The center stake for the town of Morven is supposed to be under the depot. When I was a little boy, about 1941-42, I recall sitting on the depot platform with my grandfather Enoch Edmondson and Mr. Lester, the station master at the time when South Georgia Railway still ran a small daily train from Quitman to Adel, with stops along the way as needed. Mr. Lester had a huge mastiff dog who growled at me, inducing some fear in a little boy. My grandfather, who always carried a pistol, pulled it out and said he would not let the dog harm me as he would shoot it if it tried. That settled the matter. Charles R. O’Neal, Jr., added: My father. Charles R. O’Neal was the person who drove the survey stake under the railroad depot when he was a small boy. His father, C.R. O’Neal was the Brooks County Surveyor and was laying out the town of Morven in the late 1890’s or early 1900’s…We lived in Tampa when I was growing up and use to go to Morven to see my grandparents. It was a busy place during watermelon season.

In May 2016, Cindy Chappell and Linda Cooper wrote to say that the depot was being restored.

As of February 2018, the depot had been restored. Sadly, it was lost to fire on 11 April 2018.
