About this map

The industrialized landscape of northwest Georgia is captured in detail, centered on the community of Rockmart and its northern neighbors. This area, crossing the boundary of Floyd and Polk counties, illustrates a settlement pattern shaped by the railroad and early manufacturing, particularly evident in the proximity of Aragon and Portland. The map is a significant resource for genealogists, documenting numerous family-named landmarks and local burial grounds including Dickerson Family Cem and Culver Chapel Cem.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with the winding Euharlee Creek and Fish Creek providing natural drainage for the valley. The presence of Rose Hill Cem and several rural churches, such as Mount Tabor Church, highlights the long-standing community centers of the region. Distinctive terrain like Knox Mountain rises above the network of local roads such as Collard Valley Rd and Taylorsville Rd, which connect these historic mill and agricultural towns.
