During the first hundred years of Georgia's history, northwest Georgia was generally considered "Indian Country" and was bypassed by settlers going west. Georgia had made a treaty with the Federal Government in 1802 to relinquish its Western Territory for the removal of all Indians within its boundaries, and although other tribes had been removed, little was ever done about the Cherokee Indians. Since this was the heartland of the Cherokee Nation, the handling of this delicate problem had been avoided by the State and Nation. more Following the discovery of gold near Dahlonega in 1829, settlers promptly ignored the Indian problems and began to move into the area north of Carrollton and west of the Chattahoochee River--sixty nine hundred square miles--that made up Cherokee County. The entire original county included all of the Indian territory that remained in the State of Georgia in 1831. The official birthday of Cherokee County was December 26, 1831. Examples of Indian influence in the names of various areas of Cherokee County can be easily found. The name of the Etowah River is taken from an Indian settlement called Itawa. Salacoa Creek derives its name from the Indian phrase selu-egwa, which is translated as "big corn." Sutallee and Sixes both apparently come from the word sutali, which means six. Hickory Log, Pine Log and Ball Ground were all named by the Indians and literally translated by the white settlers. The town of Waleska was named for an Indian maiden: Warluskee.

Created primarily as an emergency measure, the original county served the temporary purpose of holding the territory together under Georgia's laws while the survey was being made and while a more permanent arrangement could be worked out for its disposition into counties of normal size. Therefore, at the legislative session on December 3, 1832, the original Cherokee was divided into ten counties: Cherokee, Cass (now Bartow), Cobb, Floyd, Forsyth, Gilmer, Lumpkin, Murray, Paulding, and Union. On December 24, 1832, the same legislature added a small tract of land that had been left over in the lower part of the original Cherokee to Campbell County. Divisions made later increased the number of counties made from the original to twenty-two and parts of two others.
