"Cannon found at Cotton Indian Creek                                at Hwy 20 Bridge east of McDonough" This event was recollected to me by a lifelong citizen of the Kelleytown area back in 1974.  A cannon barrel was found on the north side of the Hwy 20 bridge at the Cotton Indian Creek NE of McDonough in the 1940's.  Mules were used to drag the artillery piece from the water.  There was also about half a sword found in the same area of bottom land along the  creek that day.  No one knows the whereabouts of the gun barrel after it was removed from the creek.  It is possible the property owner of the time retained it but it is not known.  The roadway is the old Peachstone Shoals Road and these artifacts are likely some lost by Union Raiders in 1864 as they were passing through the area.
