New Echota Ferry
The head of the Oostanaula River
is formed 200 yards northeast by
the confluence of the Coosawattee
and the Conasauga Rivers. The
passage of travelers and freight
along the Tennessee Road was served
at this point by a ferry operated
by the Cherokee Indians, principally
by Alexander McCoy from 1819
through 1835.
