What's in our name?...and a little history

Rev. Walter Bartley
|
In the mid to late 1800's Rev. Simpson
Wilson Bartley (1827-1884), Baptist minister, doctor and pioneer of
Harris County Georgia, operated a ferry across the Chattahoochee
River. He lived and owned the land near the present site of
Bartlett's Ferry (Lake
Harding ) dam; his
farm was near the Chattahoochee River. His son Walter also became a
Baptist minister and operated the ferry.
In 1924 construction of the dam started and by March 1926 Bartlett's Ferry was generating electricity. Through the misspelling of the name over the years the name of the dam became Bartlett's Ferry. Most locals refer to the backwaters created by Bartlett's Ferry dam as Lake Harding though outside of the Chattahoochee Valley area the Lake is better known by fishermen and tourist as Bartlett's (Bartletts) Ferry Lake.
