Hixtown is the former name of the city of Villa Rica in the early-to-mid 1800s. The city began to grow when gold was discovered in the area shortly after being settled, and Hixtown, combined with the nearby town of Cheevestown, contained almost 60% of the population of Carroll County. With the construction of a new railroad line in 1882, Cheevestown and Hixtown moved and combined to create the new city of Villa Rica – The city of riches.
