About this map

Industrial activity and rural settlement define this late 19th-century study of the Georgia-Alabama borderlands. The presence of the Tecumseh Furnace and nearby Holland Mine suggests a landscape shaped by iron and copper extraction, supported by the East Tennessee Virginia and Georgia Railroad. Along the winding courses of the Tallapoosa River and Little Tallapoosa River, numerous family-run operations like Young's Mill and Hooper's Mill reflect a grain and timber economy anchored to the waterways.
