About this map

Pooles Mill Covered Bridge stands along the Settingdown Creek in this contemporary record of North Georgia, where the winding Etowah River crosses the boundary between Dawson and Forsyth counties. The landscape is characterized by its legacy of rural communities and mid-century industrial history, most notably evidenced by the large tract occupied by the Georgia Nuclear Aircraft Laboratory near Big Savannah.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-placed burial grounds, including the Salem Methodist Cem near Barrettsville and the Zion Hill Baptist Cem near the community of Matt. The map also traces the drainage patterns of Amicalola Creek and Bannister Cr, alongside modern developments such as Settingdown Cr Reservoir Number Two and Reservoir 15, reflecting the area's continued reliance on managed water resources.
