HISTORY
HISTORIC HOME MUSEUMS
HISTORY
A Southern Trilogy
HISTORIC HOME MUSEUMS
OF ROSWELL
The Southern Story is a rich,
dramatic collection of complex and
compelling facts, ideas, myths, and
mysteries: Native Americans, railroads, slavery, politics, agriculture,
war, shipping, reconstruction, aristocracy, civil rights, and technology.
Here in Roswell, Georgia - situated
just 20 miles north of Atlanta - three
historic homes speak volumes about
the history of the American South
from 1838 to the present. Barrington
Hall, Bulloch Hall and Smith Plantation, a trio of antebellum museum
homes, are open to the public for
visits and exploration. Closely
situated as neighbors in the historic town
of Roswell, each home has its own cultural
bounty to share - and its own part of the
Southern Trilogy Story - to tell.
BULLOCH HALL
The Authentic Story of the American
South...
Tours Mon-Sat: 10am-3pm; Sun 1-3pm

BARRINGTON HALL
{1842}
Roswell’s Founding Family
535 Barrington Drive
770.640.3855
BARRINGTON HALL
10
In the 1830s, Roswell King
and his son, Barrington,
co-founded the colony now
known as Roswell.
Barrington built his home
on the highest point, overlooking the town. Today,
this home is recognized as
one of the finest examples
of Greek Revival architecture in the country. It’s also
listed as one of Atlanta’s
visitroswellga.com
50 Most Beautiful Homes. Barrington Hall has
the only Antebellum Garden in metro Atlanta
that is open to the public. This home’s front
parlor invites visitors to sit a spell, play period
games and enjoy the ambiance of this beautiful home.
BULLOCH HALL {1839}
A Love Story...and so much more
180 Bulloch Avenue; 770.992.1731
Built by Major James Stephens Bulloch, grandson of Georgia’s Revolutionary Governor,
Archibald Bulloch, this home is one of the most
significant houses in Georgia. It was here in
her childhood home that Mittie Bulloch met a
young man from the prominent Roosevelt family of New York. She captured his heart and
they wed at Christmastime in 1853. This was
the union that produced U.S. President, Teddy
Roosevelt. The couple’s other son,
Elliott, fathered Eleanor, who became the wife
of Franklin and the nation’s most beloved First
Lady. It was she who forever changed the
role of women in the White House. There’s
no mystery why Margaret Mitchell, author of
Gone with the Wind, sought out the last living
bridesmaid and wrote extensively about the
wedding for the Atlanta Constitution
Magazine. Bulloch’s reconstructed slave
cabin, with its living quarters and exhibits, provides opportunities to explore and recognize
the role of African-American slaves in the history of
Roswell.
acre plantation. Tragedy struck when Smith’s
eldest son, Willie, was killed during the Civil
War. Perhaps it was Willie’s death that caused
the family to hold tight to their other possessions. Whatever the reason, Smith Plantation
is filled with the family’s original artifacts. See
how time has altered this home from the time of
slaves working in the fields to a very different
day in 1986 when the family’s descendants
sold the house to the City of Roswell on the
strict condition that the family’s maid, Mamie
Cotton, be allowed to live in the house for the
remainder of her life.

Success, Family Tragedy,

935 Alpharetta St.
770.641.3978
In an effort to escape the
insects and summer heat
of coastal Georgia,
Archibald Smith traveled
to Roswell in 1845 with
his wife, children and
thirty slaves. They built
their home on a 300+

ROSWELL MILL VILIAGE/CIVIL WAR APP
During the Civil War, 400 mill workers, mostly
women and children, were arrested, charged
with treason, and sent north to uncertain fates.
Sherman wrote: Arrest all people connected
12
with those factories, no matter what the clamor,
and let them foot it, under guard, to Marietta,
whence I will send them by cars to the North ….
The poor women will make a howl. {monument

NATURE-OUTDOORS
NATURE & OUTDOORS
Nature & Outdoors
ROSWELL IS LOCATED ON THE
northern banks of the Chattahoochee River in
an area once called “Enchanted Land.”
“As you explore some of our wooded trails,
remember you are entering the home of a
people who once lived a way of life that might
seem foreign to us now. Somewhere near you
stands a tree from whose “grandfather-tree”
a bow was carved – and from another, an
arrow. From other trees within your view came
“aspirin” and “pasta and tough dependable
cordage … all from the inner bark.” There
was a day when this knowledge was known
to every man, woman and child. These were
the Native Americans who once inhabited the
land.” {Mark Warren}.
Explore Roswell with a hike, stroll, or by
canoe, kayak, or raft. Keep a pair of binoculars handy for bird watching and perhaps a
journal to log the flora and fauna you will find
along the way.

Trails for mountain biking and hiking. Big
Creek Park trails link with the Alpharetta Greenway for extended enjoyment.

making Roswell home...
ABBEY OF THE HOLY
GOATS {opening 2016}
4000 Northfield Way;
470-282-1444;
abbeyoftheholygoats.com;
Abbey of the Holy Goats is a
small-scale craft brewery coming March 2016 to Roswell. The
first female-owned Brewery in Georgia, founder
Kathy Davis decided either to start a goat farm
in some remote wilderness or pursue her passion
of producing her award-winning Belgian-style
beers for the public. The brewery won out, and
Abbey of the Holy Goats was born. The Abbey
will produce innovative Belgian-style beers
designed for perfect food pairing. Davis said the
name, Abbey of the Holy Goats, encompasses
many of her interests in life. “The name comes
from my interest in abbeys as far as living in
them, and the beer styles, and the goats come
from my love of goats. And, of course, it’s also
a play on the words ‘holy ghost.’ The monastic
lifestyle is still something that really interests me.
No matter what religion you follow, it’s always
a wonderful thing to endeavor towards.” Follow
them on Facebook for grand opening details and
specials.
GATE CITY BREWING
{now open!}
43 Magnolia Street
678-404-0960
gatecitybrewingco.com;
The name is rooted in
neighboring Atlanta’s
historical moniker as the “Gate City of the New
South” due to its reputation as a hub for culture,
commerce and transportation. At Gate City the
founders—Pat Rains, Brian Borngesser and Garrett Nail-- are Roswell residents themselves. Rains
says, “We strive to brew beers that embody the
very same independent spirit that inspired us to
chase our dreams of opening Roswell’s first craft
brewery. This is our home, where we’re raising
our families; and we see it as a great privilege
and tremendous honor to be a part of this community.” The brewery opened with two beers
30
– the “Copperhead” amber ale and the “1864”
IPA. The Copperhead Ale is a medium-bodied
American Amber flavored with Pacific Northwest
hops with a copper color and crisp finish. 1864
IPA is an approachable American IPA, which
offers a slightly fruity nose and a very drinkable
hop flavor. Rains said there are plans for several
more in the works. There will be four year-round
beers with some specialty and seasonal beers
as well.
VARIANT BREWERY
{opening late 2016/
early 2017}
facebook.com/variantbrewingcompany
Variant is in the early planning stages, targeting
late 2016 to open its doors, bringing the total
of breweries in Roswell to three. Matt Curling,
Variant’s owner and Brewmaster says the focus
“…will be on variety rather than quantity so the
smaller fermenters will allow us to explore some
more experimental recipes.” The brewery will
be located in Roswell very near to the Canton
Street scene. They’ve acquired a 3,600 square
feet building where most of the space will be
dedicated to their brewhouse. Initially Variant
will start with a 7-barrel system with a couple
7-barrel fermenters and brite tank as well as a
couple 3.5-barrel fermenters and a brite tank.
Curling continues, “Our goal is to push the limits
of craft beer by modifying traditional recipes
and experimenting with various adjuncts, unique
grain bills, hop schedules and yeasts to create
a wide variety of unique drinking experiences.”
