About this map

McCord Crossroads and Adams Crossroads anchor the northern landscape where the Alabama and Georgia state line divides Cherokee County from Floyd and Polk Counties. This modern survey reflects a region defined by its high ridges and deep hollows, notably the prominent Indian Mtn and Bluffton Mtn. The settlement pattern is largely rural, characterized by small communities like Rock Run, Forney, and Tecumseh that sit amidst a network of mountain springs and creeks such as Frog Creek and Hurricane Creek.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous church-affiliated burial grounds, including Nazareth Baptist Church Cemetery and Providence Baptist Church Cemetery. These sites, along with family-named landmarks like Suzanne Davis Mountain and Hawkins Hollow, provide a clear picture of the longstanding local communities that have navigated this terrain between Sandy Springs and the eastern settlement of Prior.
