About this map

Taylor Ridge defines the central axis of this landscape, creating a physical divide between Peavine Valley to the west and the expansive West Armuchee Valley to the east. This section of Northwest Georgia, largely contained within the Chattahoochee National Forest, exhibits a classic ridge-and-valley settlement pattern where small communities like Naomi and East Armuchee are linked by winding roads through gaps such as Maddox Gap and Smith Gap.

Family history is deeply etched into the terrain through numerous burial grounds, including the Naomi Cem, Shiloh Cem, and Bryan Cem. The presence of Suttles Mill along the W Armuchee Cr indicates the long-standing water-powered industry of the area. Traces of historical land use are further evident in the many named hollows—such as Mineral Spring Hollow and Kilpatrick Hollow—that cut into the steep slopes of the ridges.
