Stonewall is anunincorporated community inFulton County, in theU.S. state ofGeorgia.[1]
A variant name was "Monk".[1] The present name is in reference to the large stone wall built surrounding the former prison camp that sits on the grounds of the former county works facility at the corner of Stonewall Tell Road and Camp Drive.[2]
Stonewall Tell Road is named as such because it connects Stonewall to the unincorporated community of Clfitondale which was formerly referred to as "Tell" until 1956 when community leaders petitioned to have the name changed.
