A post office called Musella was established in 1889.[4] According to tradition, the community's name is an amalgamation Mose and Ella, the names of two first settlers. It is located in Crawford County Georgia, and is home to a mere 1,291 residents. At its heart, the very popular Dickey peach packing shed, famous for its creamy peach ice creme, made from the fresh local peaches. Next door, C.F.

It is home to a wide variety of small shops in the summer, including Roberts BBQ, Timmie's vegetable stand, and Davids Gems.
