A Dead Town. The original County Seat of Marion was Horry, a town located some 3 miles northeast of Tazewell, in what is now the county of Schley. The exact size
of the town today is unidentified by any existing landmarks. But it was the seat of government from the time when the county was established in 1827, until Tazewell
was made the county seat in 1838.
