Immediately after the lottery, the land was divided into 9 separate counties: Cass (later renamed Bartow), Cherokee, Cobb, Floyd, Forsyth, Gilmer, Lumpkin, Paulding and Union. Participants in the Georgia Land Lottery of 1832 (AKA: The Cherokee Land Lottery) must have been residents of Georgia for at least 3 years. Revolutionary soldiers were given extra draws.
