Clayton is the county seat, having been established in 1834, two decades after Barbour County was created. Clayton is centrally located in the county. It was situated at the headwaters of the Choctawhatchee and Pea rivers along the historic road that ran from Hobdy's Bridge across the Pea River to Eufaula, on the Chattahoochee River. Clayton was settled by a few settlers as early as 1818. Settlement began in earnest in 1823. Augustine S. Clayton was a Georgia congressman and jurist who gave the town its name. Clayton was established as the county seat for Barbour County in 1833. It was laid out using a square-plan central courthouse plan.
