About this map

Acworth and the northern reaches of Kennesaw are shown here as the suburbs of Atlanta extend into the foothills of North Georgia. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling waters of Allatoona Lake and the more compact Lake Acworth, which define the recreational and residential character of the region. This 2017 study illustrates the dense network of modern subdivisions and local roads like Acworth Due W Rd NW and Old Stilesboro Rd that have replaced the former agrarian patterns of the Bartow and Cobb county borderlands.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of preserved family and church burial grounds, including the Allatoona Universalist Church Cem and the McKinney Family Cem. These sites, along with landmarks like Mason's Bluff and Turtle Back, provide historical anchor points in an area that has seen significant 21st-century development. The survey also captures public access points such as the Upper Tanyard Creek Swimming Beach, reflecting the lake's central role in local life.
