HISTORY

After the Civil War, families returned to Roswell to rebuild their lives. The mills were reconstructed and the textile industry continued to be a major part of Roswell's economy for another hundred years. Magnificent homes, like the Archibald Smith Plantation and Bulloch Hall, were spared destruction and can still be visited today. Bulloch Hall in particular is interesting, both for its impressive Greek Revival architecture and the fact that it was home to some famous names in American history. Major Bulloch's daughter Mittie's son was Teddy Roosevelt, who became the 26th president of the United States. In 1905, President Roosevelt came to visit his mother's childhood home and gave a speech to the crowd from the bandstand in Roswell the town square. Mittie's granddaughter, Eleanor, married Franklin D. Roosevelt and would change the role of women in the White House as First Lady. Mittie's Cafe & Tea Room on Canton Street is named for this legendary Roswell resident.
