Reviews of Federal-Georgia Road Historical Marker
"Just off Interstate 24 and on the way to the Alabama-Georgia-Tennessee Tripoint, this marker points out the history of this roadway. It is on the side and there is room to stop. The marker reads, "During 1805-08, the U.S. Government and State of Tennessee constructed the Federal-Georgia Road in order to connect Tennessee to the Atlantic seaboard. The road proceeded north from Augusta to Spring Place, Georgia, where it divided. Federal Road proceeded northeast to Tellico Blockhouse. Georgia Road proceeded northwest to the Stone's River where it connected to the road to Nashville. The Cherokee later constructed an alternate route north of Lookout Mountain." This is marker 2B-29 and it was erected by the Tennessee Historical Commission. The post has clearly seen better days and the lettering has started to fade since it was installed."
