The history of Carrollton and surrounding Carroll County is a story of farmers and frontiers. Carved from the Creek Indian Nation, the region took to cotton agriculture and related mill industries in the mid-19th century and did not let go for more than 100 years. In the midst of the cotton bolls, several notable schools and education programs developed, namely the Mount Zion Methodist Seminary, the highly coveted Fourth District A&M School, and West Georgia College, whose innovative rural teacher programs earned it national distinction. These charming photographs, spanning roughly from 1885 to 1960, illustrate the region's pastoral pursuits by citizens who also enjoyed the culture and amenities befitting a thriving, modern community.
