The historic village of Clinton, established in 1808, is the site of the original seat of Jones County in Central Georgia. Clinton remained the seat until 1905, when the courthouse was moved to nearby Gray.
It was named for the plantation home of Walter Leake, third governor of Mississippi, which was located in Clinton and built in 1812. In 1828, the city changed its name to Clinton in honor of DeWitt Clinton, the former governor of New York who led completion of the Erie Canal.
