Yesterday we
spent a good part of the day in the Cartersville area.
While there
I thought about Taylorsville, which is just a few miles west of Euharlee on Hwy
113. As far I know I have never been to
Taylorsville, Georgia.
My ancestor
Greenville Pullen, Sr. and his wife Mary Polly Taylor Pullen settled in
Cartersville. Mary Polly is the daughter
of James Taylor and Mary McCrohen. I
think when they settled in the Cartersville area so did other members of the
Pullen-Taylor extended family. One of James Taylor's kids and his family went outward to Taylorsvile. It would
be nice to see Taylorsville, get the lay of the land, so to speak - to get an
idea of my late kin-folks environment.
We drove to
Taylorsville using GPS and road signs.
At one point a sign off the big wide 4-Lane expressway looking road hwy
113, almost void of vehiles, pointed down a smaller road to Taylorsville.
We turned
and drove about four or five miles seeing beautiful farm land and rolling hills. We saw a sign saying "Taylorsvilleville
City Limits".... but no public buildings, only barns.
We kept
on riding and came upon, again, Hwy 113.
We turned east and went back to Cartersville.
Where was
Taylorsville?
