Established around 1859, Galbreath Cemetery is one of the older burial grounds in the Alston area of Montgomery County, dating to the years just before the Civil War. It lies almost exactly on the Montgomery-Toombs county line, and as a result it has sometimes been recorded under both counties. Today the site holds well over 200 marked graves, reflecting the farming families who settled this rural stretch of southeast Georgia in the mid-19th century.
