== Fun facts ==
* Politically, Jenkins County is consistently Republican in most elections.
* Jenkins County contains several historically significant places. Big Buckhead Baptist Church, named for the stream that flows nearby, was constituted in 1787 and is one of the oldest Baptist churches in the state. Four different structures have housed the church on its present site. The church that stands today was constructed in 1830.
* The Magnolia Springs State Park is located just south of Perkins. It contains a clear spring that puts out 7 million gallons of water a day and also contains many recreational opportunities, as well as the Bo Ginn National Fish Hatchery and Aquarium.
* Birdsville is the site of an antebellum manor known as the Birdsville Plantation. It sits on a plot that was originally part of a 500-acre land grant to Francis Jones by the governor and council of Georgia before the Revolutionary War (1775-83). When Jones died in 1774, his two sons, Francis and James, inherited the land, which became a thriving plantation. In turn James's son Phillip inherited the property and began construction on the plantation house. Phillip's grandson William Beeman completed the construction in 1847, and the house still stands, though it bears the scars of bullet holes left by the passing army of Union general William T. Sherman.
