== Fun facts ==
* From before the American Revolutionary War until the 1950s, Lincoln County was primarily a farming and agricultural area. The development and creation of Clarke Hill Dam created a large reservoir that covered portions of Lincoln and nearby counties. Developers have created many residential neighborhoods and subdivisions in areas near the lake.
* Politically, Lincoln County is strongly Republican in most elections.
* The Loco community is listed as "Loce" in the GNIS and on Google Maps.
* Elijah Clark State Park is located on the western shores of Lake Strom Thurmond. Elijah Clark himself was a frontiersman and war hero who led a force of pioneers in Georgia during the American Revolution. A reconstructed log cabin displays colonial life with furniture and tools dating back to 1780. The park is also the site of the graves of Clark and his wife, Hannah.
** The park's location on the lake makes it popular with fishermen.
