City of Odum
Odum began as a thriving sawmill community in the late 1800s, built on the rich harvest of virgin pine forests and strengthened by the arrival of the Macon and Brunswick Railway. Originally known as Haslum and later Satilla, the town officially became Odum in 1887, named for early landowner and businessman Godfrey Odum, whose investments and vision helped shape the growing community. From its early mills, railway stop known as “Number Five,” and land expansions to the establishment of churches, homes, and local businesses, Odum steadily developed into a close-knit town rooted in hard work and enterprise. Today, Odum honors its proud heritage while continuing to serve as a welcoming community in Wayne County, Georgia.
