Register is a small incorporated town in Bulloch County, Georgia, in the gently rolling coastal plain west of Statesboro, the county seat. The settlement that became Register was named for Franklin Pierce Register, who moved to the area in 1894, became the town's postmaster, and, with the help of his nephew J. L. Johnson, started naval stores and mercantile enterprises that encouraged further settlement. The town counted 157 residents in the 2020 census, making it the smallest of Bulloch County's incorporated cities. The town sits within a region long shaped by agriculture and timber. Bulloch County lies in southeast Georgia's coastal plain, a landscape of farms, pine plantations, and small crossroads communities, and Register reflects that heritage. Naval stores, the turpentine and resin industry that once thrived across the southern pine belt, were central to the town's early commerce, alongside general mercantile trade serving the surrounding farms. Register's modest scale means that daily needs, employment, and services are drawn largely from Statesboro a short drive to the east. Statesboro is the county seat and a growing regional center, home to Georgia Southern University, Ogeechee Technical College, and the county's major commercial and medical facilities. That proximity gives Register residents a practical balance: the quiet of a small rural town with the conveniences of a university community nearby. Register offers a distinctly unhurried, small-town character. Its quiet residential streets, churches, and community institutions sit amid open farmland, and the pace of life follows the agricultural calendar. For those seeking rural life in southeast Georgia without being far removed from schools, shopping, and services, Register represents the kind of compact country town that has long defined the region, close to Statesboro and within reach of Savannah and the coast.
