About this map

Dalton's northern expansion and its surrounding Whitfield County landscape are documented here at a time of significant residential and commercial development. The city's northern neighborhoods, including Fort Hill and Cannon Heights, show a dense street grid that transitions into the more rural character of Waring and Pleasant Grove. Industrial and logistical activity is anchored by the Dalton Quarry and the Dalton Post Office, while the natural topography is defined by the prominent Mount Rachel and Hamilton Mountain.

Water management and recreation are central to the geography, with Haig Mill Lake and several watershed dams situated among the hills. For genealogists, the map is a detailed resource, locating several burial grounds including Fairground Cemetery, Hamilton Cemetery, and West Hill Cemetery. To the east, the Conasauga River winds through the landscape near Cedar Ridge, while unique local landmarks like The Ninetyseven Springs and Cherokee Boys Camp reflect the area's social and natural history.
