If you are ever on I-20 driving between Atlanta and Augusta, take the time to get off at Exit 148 and drive into Crawfordville. At The Stoplight, turn Left, drive under the railroad trestle and visit Liberty Hall, the home of A.H. Stephens.
It is a state park & museum. Next door is the associated Confederate museum. While at Liberty Hall, be sure to visit the slave quarters out behind the main house.
On a side note, in 1922, Liberty Hall was not a museum, but instead served as a boarding house. My mother was born in the upstairs bedroom on the left (looking at the house). So far, the Georgia Historical Commission has not seen fit to install a bronze plaque commemorating the birthplace of the mother of Bwana Ndege...
