History
Much of SR 300 follows the route of cancelled Interstate 175, which would have connected the city of Albany to the Interstate system via I-75. The portion of SR 300 that parallels the now-defunct I-175 between Cordele and Albany was formerly known as SR 257, and the portion of SR 300 from Albany to the Florida State Line was SR 333.
The original SR 300 was a route between Monticello and US 129/US 441/SR 24 near Rock Eagle 4-H Center.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Regarding History as the slaughter-bench at which the happiness of peoples, the wisdom of States, and the virtue of individuals have been victimized—the question involuntarily arises—to what principle, to what final aim these enormous sacrifices have been offered.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“Only the history of free peoples is worth our attention; the history of men under a despotism is merely a collection of anecdotes.”
—Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
“the future is simply nothing at all. Nothing has happened to the present by becoming past except that fresh slices of existence have been added to the total history of the world. The past is thus as real as the present.”
—Charlie Dunbar Broad (1887–1971)
