Sixes Gold Mine Location[edit]

The location of Sixes Gold Mine shown on the map locator does not fully agree with my personal observation. Numerous diggings and tailing piles can be seen a few hundred yards to the east along Sixes Creek. If the author would like to confer on this, or on any other gold creeks on the Corps property around Allatoona Lake, contact the commenter at rrkelly@bellsouth.net rrkRrk303 (talk) 15:13, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The decribed ownership of the site is contradictory. The article variously says that it is on Army Corps of Engineers property, and on a private subdivision. Plazak (talk) 17:58, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sixes is the name of a Cherokee Village reported in the Cherokee Phoenix to have began in approximately 1776. This was many years before the gold rush in Georgia. There was much mining activity but no evidence that mining occurred prior to 1830.according to my research the name six this has nothing to do with there being six minds in the vicinity. Mining activity was by no means limited to six mines. Mining occurred in far more than six places in the six this area. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.18.18.98 (talk) 04:18, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
