The park has a sign that tell the history of how the park came to be. Check there.
Also check with the Stephens County Historical Society at the depot downtown. Someone there might be able to tell you the history or if there is a book about it. I checked Ms Trogdon's "History of Stephens County" and she gives no history other than to say it's a 12 ft waterfall inside the city limits of Toccoa.
I'm sure there are. Toccoa has a rich history. Check with the local library.
