- Description:
- A train with the L and N Railroad makes a stop in Cherokee County in 1906. Gilmer County, which was cut from Cherokee County in 1832, enjoyed a growth in the timber industry after the arrival of the railroad in 1884, resulting in a stronger connection between Ellijay and the rest of the state.
