About this map

Adairsville serves as the central hub of this survey, situated along the Nashville Chattanooga & St Louis RR and the winding course of Oothkalooga Creek. The map reflects a landscape defined by small rural communities and family-named landmarks, such as the Corra Harris Home and the Adairsville Airport. To the east, the terrain rises into Pine Log Mountain, while the valleys are dotted with historic gathering places like Oothkalooga Ch, Towe Chapel, and Wesley Chapel.

Evidence of early 20th-century life is visible in the numerous small educational and burial sites, including Stoners Sch and Pickard Cem. This region on the border of Gordon and Bartow counties was heavily reliant on its rail and river connections, with the Oostanaula River cutting through the northwest corner. Prominent peaks like Henderson Mtn and Wolf Cave Mtn overlook a network of local thoroughfares such as Rome Road and Rock Fence Road.
