Obediah Barber Homestead, Historical homestead in Ware County, United States.

The Obediah Barber Homestead sits near the northern edge of the Okefenokee Swamp and contains several buildings from the early settlement period. The main house is accompanied by a detached kitchen and well, all preserved to show how people lived at that time.

Obediah Barber (1825–1909), known as the "King of the Swamp", built the homestead in 1870 near the northern edge of the Okefenokee Swamp. The main house, detached kitchen and well were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. Barber was a noted explorer of the swamp.

Obediah Barber, called the "King of the Swamp" for his exploration of Okefenokee, gave the homestead its name, and the site keeps a moonshine still among its exhibits. The museum shows late-1800s farm life with over 20 structures, though only the main house and detached kitchen are original.

Visitors can explore over 20 structures on the property, including original buildings and pre-mechanical farm equipment displays. A nature trail winds through the grounds and offers chances to see local wildlife and plants in their natural setting.

Obediah Barber, called the "King of the Swamp", was buried on the property; his grave lies near the homestead he built in 1870. Of the more than 20 structures on the site today, only the main house and the detached kitchen are original.
