Cooper's Furnice A remnant of the antebellum industrial center started by Mark Anthony Cooper at Etowah, Georgia (now under the waters of Lake Allatoona) located in Bartow County, Georgia. Cooper sold the iron manufacturing facilities to the Confederate States of America in 1863, and it was destroyed by Union Forces in 1864 in the midst Sherman's March to the Sea,. The remaining cold blast steel furnace still stands, being the only thing left from Cooper's Iron empire. Today, visitors can hike the trails which lead to the overlook atop the Dam at Lake Allatoona or picnic and play along the banks of the Etowah River.
