At Old Town Preserve, nature's splendor meets human ingenuity, creating a haven of tranquility and luxury. The Community Old Town Preserve is so-named with a hint towards the Creek or Muscogee Native American words from Tallapoosa, Georgia, derived from Talwa posa, meaning "Grandmother Town." These tribes are considered among the oldest groups in the Southeast (hence the name Old Town Preserve). Tallapoosa, Georgia, has a rich history and is a place of great ceremonial importance to Native Americans, including the Choctaw, Creek, and Cherokee tribes. Around 1842, gold was discovered by a local farmer, William Owens, and some 100,000 pennyweights were mined. In the late 1800s, the Georgia-Alabama Investment and Development Company spurred the founding of a new City, Tallapoosa, along the tracks of the Georgia Pacific Railroad. Tallapoosa was labeled "A Georgia Town with a great future" because of the mineral resources and the creation of the Tallapoosa Land, Mineral, and Mining Company by Ralph L. Spencer, who also drew the winemaking industry to the area. Today, local employers include Honda Precision Parts, Wayne Davis Concrete Co, E.J. Brooks Co, British American Rubber Co, and Custom Beverage Concepts, to name a few.
