During Post Civil War Reconstruction era, Counties in Georgia elected Representatives to the Constitutional Convention of 1865.
Baker Ewing Watkins, for instance, a very experienced Kentucky Legislator who had moved south to Georgia prior to the Civil War, was elected to represent Colquitt County in the Georgia Constitutional Convention of 1865.
This Georgia Constitutional Convention repealed the Ordinance of Secession and abolished slavery.
In December 1865, the Georgia General Assembly ratified the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S.Constitution ending slavery. Only AFTER this Georgia once again begin to participate in the National Government process with two U.S.Senators elected in Jan 1866 for the first time since 1861. However, Georgia elected Alex. Stephens and Herschel Johnson, Confederates, who were opposed so by the North, that neither were allowed to take their seats. This of course passed eventually.
