Discover Kennesaw
The name Kennesaw comes from the Cherokee word Ganisahv, meaning "cemetery" or "burial ground." As the Western and Atlantic Railroad was built in the late 1830s, shanty towns grew up near a big spring to house the workers. A grade up from the Etowah River became known as "the big grade to the shanties," then Big Shanty Grade, and the settlement was known as Big Shanty until it was chartered as the city of Kennesaw in 1887.
More about Kennesaw
Camp MacDonald, a Confederate training camp, was there from 1861 to 1863. On April 12, 1862, Big Shanty was the starting point of the Great Locomotive Chase, an important event in railroad history. The area later saw major fighting in the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain during the Atlanta campaign, and Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park preserves much of the battlefield southeast of the city. The Kennesaw Cemetery, still in use, holds graves from as early as 1863, including Civil War veterans, and was expanded by L. C. Chalker in 1934 and 1948 before being sold to the city in the mid-1950s. In March 2004 First Lady Laura Bush designated Kennesaw a Preserve America Community. The city is home to Kennesaw State University. Sources Wikipedia: Kennesaw, Georgia
