Pope Family
Farm House, circa 1902. This badly faded photo has been enhanced.
Three other pictures on this page have this
house in the background. The picture to the right was made on
the porch. The picture below has this farm house in the
background. Aunt Mag is seated in front of this house (lower
right). She said that Yankee soldiers left bullets in
the wall of this house.
The Pope farm
house is no longer standing. The old house site, and the adjacent
Pope burial ground is on the grounds of Hartsfield Airport.

The location of
this farm house is marked on Sherman's maps of the Battle of
Atlanta, Plate LX. The maps also indicate the nearby location of
Pope's Cotton Gin, where the Pope family cemetery is now located.
