Weston is an unincorporated community in Webster County, Georgia, United States. The population was 75 at the 2000 census. In 2009, the former town was disincorporated and consolidated with the Unified Government of Webster County.
Some say the town's name honors Joseph L. Weston, an early town elder, while others believe the town site's location in the western portion of the county caused its name to be selected.[3]
