Roswell

Roswell is a city located in northern Fulton County, Georgia. It is an affluent northern suburb of the state capital of Atlanta. Roswell is Georgia’s eighth largest city with a approximate population of 88,346 (per the 2010 U.S. census).
In 1830, Roswell King opened up his cotton mill along Vickery Creek. Since the land nearby was suitable for plantations, he planted cotton throughout. In the 1830s, Roswell King returned to build the largest mill in North Georgia, Roswell Mill. During the Civil War, the Mill served as a major producer for the Confederate Uniforms. Since then, Roswell has grown to be one of the largest cities in Georgia, with a steadily increasing population.
Roswell abounds with natural beauty, the meandering Chattahoochee River, many wonderful parks, and numerous areas to sit back and enjoy the surrounding nature. There are many creative and innovative businesses in Roswell, but an ultimate emphasis rests on historic preservation. These many attributes and Roswell’s residents have long distinguished the city as a very special community to call home.
