2011 Map of Lost Mountain

About this map

Lost Mountain serves as a prominent landmark in this corner of Cobb County, where residential growth increasingly defined the landscape by the early 21st century. The map reveals an intricate network of subdivisions and neighborhoods such as McEachern Woods, West Hampton, and California, which are interspersed with older family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific local history in the numerous cemeteries preserved amidst the modern development, including Shipp-Old Lost Mountain Cemetery, Echols Cemetery, and Post Oak Cemetery. The drainage patterns of Allatoona Creek and Powder Springs Creek continue to shape the terrain, even as traditional farming areas like Brooks Farm transitioned into new residential pockets. This survey captures a moment of modern suburbanization while maintaining the cartographic record of foundational local sites like Davis Crossroads and the community of Macland.
