system, the Mission of San Buenaventra, was built and maintained until
1686. Oglethorpe changed the name to Jekyll Island in honor of Sir
Joseph Jekyll, in 1734. Jekyll contributed liberally towards the
founding of Georgian colonies. Jekyll was acquired in 1791 by Christophe

Island Cotton. The 1858 voyage of "The Wanderer", marked as
the last ship to import Negro slaves in America, landed its' cargo on
Jekyll Island near du Bignon's plantation. We offer real estate listings in the
