Cedartown anchors the southeastern corner of this landscape, where the street grid gives way to the ridges and valleys of the Georgia-Alabama borderlands. This 2014 survey documents the enduring settlement patterns of Polk and Floyd Counties, from the cluster of Cave Spring near the namesake spring and Old Mill Spring to the historic rural community of Chubbtown. The map illustrates a region defined by its water sources and topography, with Little Cedar Cr and Dry Creek winding through the terrain between Padlock Mountain Rd SW and the drainage of Tan Yard Br. Genealogists will find significant value in the placement of several small burial grounds, including Hemphill Cem, Red Hill Cem, and the Chubb Road Cem, which mark the generational footprints of these upland communities. The western edge highlights the quiet reaches of Etna Valley, showing the intersection of local routes like Prior Station Rd and Blacksmith Rd.
