History

A post office was established at Subligna in 1848, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1953. The name honors a settler named Dr. William Dunlap Underwood, subligna being a Latin construct meaning "under wood".

The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Subligna as a town in 1870. The town's municipal charter was repealed in 1995.
