Cardiff was a booming railroad town in the 1800's and early 1900's. I can remember as a child visiting relatives there and going to the butcher shop before going home. It was almost a ghost town by 1960. And today is only a few homes and a business or two. The K-Mart that is in the process of closing and the new Super-Wal-Mart were the merchants in that area today. On the new road of course, the old Cardiff road was almost impassable in places a few years ago. Today Cardiff may be incorporated into either or both Rockwood and / or Harriman. Depending on which end of the community your visiting.

The name of the paper there is the Roane County News. ----- Original Message ----- From: William Sharp Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 11:13 AM To: TNROANE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [TNROANE] Rockwood You are correct in my haste I typed rockwell.
