Newton+County

Newton County was created in 1821 from parts of Henry, Jasper and Walton counties. Georgia's 53rd county is named for Revolutionary War hero, John Newton. Covington has been known as the Hollywood of the South due to the number of movies and television shows filmed there. In the Heat of the Night, a long running television show, spent its eight years in Covington while filming. The Dukes of Hazards was another prime time show that began its television series in the county.
