Smith Plantation House - In 1838, the Smith family left St. Marys along the southern coast of Georgia, to make a new start with some 300 acres of cotton farmland north of the Roswell Town Square. Over 150 years, the Smith’s Plantation Home has stood the test of time. Surviving The Civil War, the small village of Roswell grew into a bustling metropolitan suburb. Perfectly preserved are the Smiths two-story farm house, complete with slave quarters, a cook house, corn crib, barn, carriage house, well, and spring house.
Three generations of the Smith family lived in this home and saved all of their belongings that now are on display for all to see. Tours are available!
Bulloch Hall - Constructed for James Stephens Bulloch and his wife Martha Stewart Elliott Bulloch.
