Situated along Interstate 75, Whitfield County is just minutes south of Chattanooga, TN and a short drive north of the metropolitan Atlanta area.

Founded in 1851, Whitfield County was previously home to the Woodland Indians and later the Creek Indians until the mid-1700's, when the Cherokee took control of the region until displaced by white settlers in the 1800's. The area was also the scene of numerous Civil War skirmishes and battles, including the famous Great Locomotive Chase.
