About this map

Rome stands at the confluence of the Oostanaula River and the Etowah River, where they merge to form the Coosa River. This 2014 survey documents the dense suburban development of northern Floyd County, from the neighborhoods of West Rome and Garden Lakes to the expansive campus of Berry College. The landscape is dominated by the ridge of Lavender Mountain to the west and the broad drainage of the Little Texas Valley to the north.

Genealogists and local historians can locate numerous community landmarks, including the historic Myrtle Hill and Lumpkin Hill overlooking the city center. The map details a transition from the industrial and commercial corridors of North Rome to the rural expanses near Armuchee, featuring institutional sites like the Richard B Russell Airport and the Berry College Chapel. Numerous family-named cemeteries such as Tate Cemetery and Reece Cemetery are preserved across the terrain.
