1901 Map of Marietta

About this map

The Chattahoochee River serves as a central artery for this late 19th-century landscape, a period when local travel and commerce relied heavily on established river crossings such as Pumpkintown Ferry, Campbellton Ferry, and Morris Ferry. The settlement pattern reflects a pre-suburban era of North Georgia, where industrial activity was defined by water-powered operations like Allen Mills and Daniells Mills. The rail network, including the Southern and Birmingham Div and the West Point and Atlanta Railroad, connects established hubs like Marietta and Dallas with smaller, now-obscured junctions.
