The Mulberry River is a 28.2-mile-long (45.4 km) [1] tributary of the Middle Oconee River in the U.S. state of Georgia. It rises in southeastern Hall County ( Braselton) and flows southeast, forming the boundary between Jackson and Barrow counties, to join the Middle Oconee south of Jefferson.
The river's name is an accurate preservation of the native Creek-language name Tishmaugu. [2]
