Population over time
2 figuresMarshallville fell from 1,448 to 1,048 between 2010 and 2020. These are the recorded population figures Wikidata holds for this place, reached through the Geographic Names Information System number this page is keyed on rather than by name, so they belong to this place and not to another of the same name. Most are census counts, but not all are: an early figure may be a founding or settlement estimate, and an estimate published within five years of a census is left out. The change column is computed, and is left blank where more than 20 years separate a figure from the one before it, because a gap that long is not a change between two counts.

Storms near this place
11 since 1997Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The National Weather Service names Marshallville in 11 storm reports between 1997 and 2026: 7 thunderstorm wind, 2 tornado, 1 hail, 1 flash flood. The reports record 2 injuries. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date opens the federal record of that event.
| When | Event | Place named | Harm | What the report says |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| March 2026 | Tornado (EF2) | Marshallville | 2 hurt | The tornado first touched down west of Bryant Hill Road and moved|through a large pecan orchard snapping and uprooting numerous|trees. The tornado moved across Bryant Hill Road and very rapidly reached max intensity as it approached Sleepy Hollow Road. JGX radar data also confirms the presence of very strong velocities in the area near Sleepy Hollow Road as well. The|tornado struck a mobile home community on the west side of Sleepy Hollow Road destroying 4 mobile homes, overturning a home and damaging several others. One of the residents of a home was thrown approximately 40 feet from one of the destroyed homes. In another home, there were 2 injuries as a result of the home being|flipped over and destroyed. The overturned mobile home remained intact, however the anchors which were concreted into the ground were pulled out of the ground and hanging from the frame. Numerous trees nearby the community and across the street were snapped. The combination of the damage to the mobile homes and the scope of the tree damage nearby are consistent with high end EF1 to low end EF2 and the basis of the low end EF2 rating for this storm. The tornado continued east toward Hwy 49 snapping and uprooting trees. Two large silos had their tops ripped off with bricks and debris strewn all around the area near the silos. The tornado crossed Hwy 49 snapping and uprooting trees in a pecan orchard and flipping 3 sections of a center pivot. As|the storm continued east, a weakening trend was noted both on radar and the corresponding damage on the ground with mostly sporadic tree damage across Vegetable Road, County Rd 123 and County road 116. The tornado lifted north of Juice plant road just east of County Road 116. |
| July 2008 | Thunderstorm Wind | Marshallville | $275,000 | A deputy with the Macon County Sheriff's Office reported that from 50 to 75 trees were down and hundreds more tree limbs in and around Marshallville. Dozens of power lines were also down in the area. At least 10 homes sustained damage from downed trees. |
| March 2019 | Tornado (EF0) | Marshallville | $45,000 | A National Weather Service survey found that an EF0 tornado with maximum wind speeds of 80 mph and a maximum path width of 300 yards touched down east of Marshallville along Juice Plant Road. A few trees were snapped along Juice Plant Road as the storm moved east northeast south of the roadway. A few trees were downed along Finch Lane where one tree fell across the corner of a home and several other trees were snapped in the tree line behind the home. The tornado crossed Camp John Hope Road downing several more trees before crossing Big Indian Creek into Southern Peach County. No injuries were reported.
