This is a follow-up to my post on the Future and history of the Tritt property.
The August 2012 edition of Around Walton magazine had a good story on Mrs. Wylene Tritt (p.56).
The rest of this post is more technical information, for those interested.
The Cobb County Tax Assessor has the following tax maps showing the Tritt property:
I found a description of the property from online deeds at the Cobb County deed office:

I found a description of the property from online deeds at the Cobb County deed office:
Source: Cobb County Deed Book 4453, page 177. Dated 5 May 1987.
"... in Land Lots 965 and 966 of the 16th District, Second Section, land lying and being [in] Cobb County, Georgia, and being more particularly described as follows:
BEGINNING at a point located at the common corner of Land Lots 966, 967, 979 and 978 from said point beginning; running thence North 86° 49' 30'' West along the Land Lot line common to Land Lots 966 and 979 a distance of 337.98 feet to a point; running thence North 87° 31' 12'' West and continuing along said Land Lot Line a distance of 1096.56 feet to a point located at the common corner of Land Lots 965, 966, 980, 979; running then North 87° 22' 00" West along the Land Lot line common to Land Lot 965 and Land Lot 980 a distance of 962.34 feet to a point located at the center line of Sewell Mill Creek; running thence Northerly and North Westerly along the center line to said creek and following the meanderings thereof a distance of 125 feet, more or less, to a point on the centerline of said creek; running then South 87° 45' 40'' East a distance of 226.10 feet to a point and corner; running then North 01° 49' 09'' East a distance of 109.82 feet to a point located on the centerline fo [sic] Swell Mill Creek; running thence Northerly and North Easterly along the centerline of said creek a distance of 1450.00 feet, more or less, to a point on the centerline of said creek; running thence South 87° 05' 05'' East a distance of 42.00 feet, more or less, to a point and corner; running thence North 00° 25' 25'' East a distance of 19.80 feet to a point located on the Southerly right-of-way of Georgia State Highway 120 (a/k/a Roswell road), having a 80 foot right-of-way; running thence South 87° 45' 09'' East along the Southerly right-of-way of Georgia State Highway 120 a distance of 1646.00 feet to a point located on the Land Lot line common to Land Lots 966 and 967; running thence South 02° 35' 10'' West along said Land Lot Line a distance of 1,305.36 feet to the point of beginning."
There are a few discrepancies between the distances listed on the tax maps and those in the deed above. I am most interested in the south property line of the Tritt property, since I used that as a baseline for my post on the size of the proposed Isakson Living development.
To the south, the Tritt land borders the Robinson Walk subdivision, the Hidden Hollow subdivision, and Fullers Park.
According to the tax map, the south line with Robinson Walk is approximately 337 ft (adding up the north lines of lots in that subdivision, 297.34 marked, approx 40 ft not marked). This matches well with the 337.98 figure in the deed.
For the south line with Hidden Hollow, adding up the north lines of the lots in that subdivision gives 1097.2 feet; this is pretty close to the 1096.56 ft in the deed.
The biggest discrepancy is the south line with Fullers Park. The tax map says it is 1040 feet, but the deed says it is just 962.34 ft.
From the tax maps, the south line of the Tritt property is 2474.2 ft. I used 2460 ft to give Isakson Living a small "benefit of doubt". The deed says the south line is 2396.88 (if you add up the figures; I realize the angle of the line changes very slightly as you go east to west). So, depending on which figures are actually correct, my baseline of 2460 may be too large by less than 3%, or too small by less than 1%. In any case, it is pretty close, and a good baseline to measure the lengths of the massive buildings proposed by Isakson Living.
