Tax Crossroads, Georgia

Tax Crossroads is an unincorporated community in Talbot County, in the U.S. state of Georgia.[1]

History

A variant name of the community was "Tax".[1] The community was named for the fact tax collectors would pick up tax returns at the local country store.[2] A post office called Tax was established in 1893, and remained in operation until 1910.[3]
