State-wide 1832 Land Lottery in Georgia
The "Gold" Lottery was authorities by the  Act of December 21, 1830; Act of December 24, 1831. The drawing took place in 1832.

Counties:
The original Cherokee Indian territory became Cherokee County by an Act of December 26, 1831. A law passed on December 3, 1832, divided original Cherokee County into ten counties: Cass-renamed Bartow, Cherokee, Cobb, Floyd, Forsyth, Gilmer, Lumpkin, Murray, Paulding, and Union. In the drawing of tickets and in the granting of the land, the area was treated only as Cherokee territory. It was divided between land lots distributed by the sixth land lottery and gold lots that were distributed by the seventh land lottery.
Sections and Land Districts:
The territory was so expansive that Cherokee County was divided into four sections, and each section was divided into districts. There were a total of 60 land districts, and each was divided into land lots. Fractional lots of 100 acres and more were counted as whole lots. First Section: Districts 6-10, 16-19.
Second Section: Districts 4-14, 20, 22-27
Third Section: Districts 5-16
Fourth Section: Districts 4-15, 18-19

Land Lots were 160 acres each. The Grant Fee was $18.00 per Land Lot.
