![]() Here is the rest of the story... Following Appomattox 9 When we got back to camp, some of us were ready to start for home. We had a long trek ahead of us. We would have to go down through Virginia to the east end of Tennessee climb through the Cumberland Gap and travel across Tennessee to Arkansas. It was going to be a very hard trip. I had a full canteen, a haversack full of food I had saved over the last 3 days and my brogans were still in decent shape for walking. I had gotten back some of my strength over the last few days since we had some sleep, food, water and didn’t have to worry about fighting or getting kilt. So Jones Amason, Kasper Schmit (Smitty), Ben Stephens and I went over to Captain Harrison’s tent and asked permission to light out. He shook hands with us and wished us the best and Godspeed. We went back to our camp and said good bye to the other Company E men. It took another hour before we had said all our goodbyes to the Texas Boys and wished them well. About 3 o’clock as we had . ...

![]() The Old Federal Road: Roads to the west were few and far between, mostly traveling through well-known gaps in the Appalachian Mountain range like the Cumberland Gap. A route from Savannah to Nashville would have to climb fewer mountains, would be more direct and could give Nashville residents a second port for their goods. In 1803 Return J. Meigs agreed in principle with the Cherokee chiefs for a road. The genesis of the Old Federal Road from the Chattahoochee River to Nashville, Tennessee came with the 1805 Treaty of Tellico. Settlers and others who used the Old Federal Road normally joined the route in Athens, Georgia or Jefferson, Georgia. At "Federal Crossing", near present-day Flowery Branch, they left the protection of the federal government, crossing Peachtree Road and entering the Cherokee Nation at Vann's Ferry less than three miles away. Over the next two miles they climbed out of the river valley past James Vann's Chattahoochee Plantation and his tavern adjacent to the road. Seasoned travelers ...

![]() just found the coolest thing ever During the 1770's, Fort Chiswell served as a militia fort and rest stop for the migration into the Wilderness. It is likely that Fort Chiswell began as a rude blockhouse and was expanded into a fort. In its prime, the fort contained as many as twenty buildings. Prior to 1800, approximately sixty thousand settlers passed through. The fort was vital as a place of refuge, as a trading post.The old Wilderness Road from Draper's Meadows to Cumberland Gap, often trodden by Daniel Boone and others, goes by Fort Chiswell and what is now Wytheville.

![]() I've had enough of little men Who dreamed the opaque moon caroused, Who drain their whiskey dram, and then Refuse the dreams such frenzies rouse. The silent moon herself's a huntress Dipping with naked step through branch and leaf With wild white wide eyes, Her hunter's bow taut with grief. I've had enough of townhall edicts, The bartered brag of big men's boasts, And charming ladies' difficult minuets, And every matter that's matter-of-fact. Now I follow the silver leer of the moon That pours in silence along a midnight stream Over rocky Cumberland Gap, and soon To the remotest forest of a dream. And there, piled pelts of fine sleek rabbits, And there, a trusty hunting dog, And there no human scourges traffic, And there, the Kentucky of God.

![]() This nation was found by our ancestors and they were just like Davy Crocett, except tougher. They wore real live wolverines on their heads. They hopped on their motorcycles which were made of wood cuz it was a long time ago, and they moved west over the Cumberland gap and into tuxedo valley. They wanted to settle there but they were not properly attired. They were called minutemen because that's how long it took to bake a potato. These were harder times before the disco revolution when hordes of buffalo roamed the ocean floor.. um until they were all wiped out by settlers firing at them from portals of submarines. Anyways, Abe Lincoln gave the iceberg address describing the tragic sinking of the titanic which brought quite a swift end to the war. Meanwhile Lewis and Clark were crossing the underwear when they were attacked by redcoats with yellow pants. Luckily they were picked up by fruit planes and flown to the purple mountains, magically. There they became rough, tough lawmen and won the famous Eat Out ...

![]() The Pine Mountain Trail has now officially adopted a road-walk route from Kingdom Come State Park to Cumberland Gap. Until the trail is developed along Pine Mountain, the following route is the official route (from the NE to the SW). Take 1679 (Little Shepherd Trail) from Kingdom Come State Park to US 421 (above Harlan, KY). Turn left on US 421 and stay on the left-hand shoulder (it is safer). Stay on US 421 through Harlan and continue towards Martin's Fork Lake. Turn left on 987 and continue through Smith KY. Turn left on Brownies Creek primitive road (4.4 miles) to Hensley Settlement (Hensley Settlement Road) and ascend Brushy Mountain & Cumberland Mountain to the Hensley Settlement via the Farm Road Trail (0.9 miles).

![]() I have been asked to once again give an angling/coarse fishing presentation at Historic Martin's Station. The time is to be determined, but my lecture/show and tell/and hands-on instruction for the participants will be on Saturday afternoon, May 11. If you have not visited Martin's Station, located between Cumberland Gap and Ewing, in the Virginia panhandle, you have missed one of the premiere historic sites in the country. The event in May is special in may respects, not the least of which is the presence of a large number of very serious native American reenactors and the 'raid' on the station, in which the natives attack the stockade, capture women and children, and burn buildings. The weekend event starts on Friday the 10Th, and concludes on Sunday. In addition to giving the angling/coarse fishing presentation, I will have my trade tent with a full line of period correct fishing accessories. If at all possible, try to come this year. I would appreciate the opportunity to visit with you. And beside ...

![]() My personal heritage goes back to the begiining of the founding of our great nation. In carrying on this tradition, we at Force X will continue to support and defend our government and our great nation. My personal heritage is below: Captain Samuel Stalnaker Colonial Soldier and Early Pioneer Captain Samuel Stalnaker Colonial Soldier and Early Pioneer and Some of His Descendants An Illustrated History of the Early Stalnaker Pioneers Compiled by: Leo Stalnaker 1938 According to the early tradition of the Stalnaker family, four Stalnaker brothers came from Holland and settled at Charleston, South Carolina, among the first settlers there. Later they were driven away by Indians and scattered, and one or more of the brothers went North to Virginia and perhaps as far as Pennsylvania. One of these was doubtless Samuel Stalnaker, explorer, Indian trader, colonial soldier, early pioneer, and frontiersman who discovered Cumberland Gap. One theory is that Samuel Stalnaker went first to Pennsylvania, and then he wen ...

![]() The Willards Arrived In 1853 - Ernie Henes 1983 - In 1853 the Rev. Samuel Willard was called to serve the Church of Christ. His son Archibald McNeal was 17. From early childhood he loved to draw and spent many hours sketching vivid scenes, using a bit of carpenter chalk and a lump of coal. His talent earned him a job with E. S. Tripp painting carriages and wagons. He did the fancy striping meticulously, and something more-he painted landscapes and animal scenes on the wagon boxes. Tripp's wagons became popular and won blue ribbons at the Ohio State Fair. When the Civil War erupted Willard joined the 86th Ohio Infantry and became a color sergeant. He served at Cumberland Gap. Just as today, it was a hurry-up-and-wait army and he had time to sketch. Some of his drawings appeared in Harper's Magazine while others he sold to fellow soldiers. Following his discharge he sent James F. Ryder, an art dealer in Cleveland, two of his paintings for framing. They were of a dog pulling a small wagon with three youngst ...

![]() Do you ever wonder where your mind comes up with stuff you've never seen or places you've never been. when it's dreaming? Last night I had a dream that was so vivid... I was somewhere on the Cumberland Trail. walking and looking at some land that I was trying to buy. I had several investors with me and I was trying to convince them that this 600 some odd acres was a great investment at $40,000 dollars an acre. I can still see where we were standing on the nearest blacktop road that had a trail through a wooded area crossing it... this was the Cumberland Trail and some things were so clearly unusual. For instance, you know those big propane tanks that you see along side some roads, houses or businesses... the larger ones for commercial storage? There was on beside the road and the owner had taken that long cylinder body and dressed it up to look like a train engine. across the road was a smaller one with sheet metal added to look like a different model of some old train engine. The I saw a mobile home and ...

![]() We NEED suggestions for NEW race hills! There are a couple hills on our traditional hill list that we need to think about changing. Our traditional May hill is one that comes to mind. Its bumby, fast, narrow and with 6 cars is a really tight run. With our fields getting bigger and bigger, this hill and the bridge at the bottom are going to be a disaster. Last season we had SEVERAL very close finishes that were decided by INCHES. 2 cars fighting for position on the May hill coming onto the bridge is not going to end well. We have been very fortunate so far that the only incident on that hill only involved one car and didn't result in injury. If we choose to run that road again this year, I think we should consider running in a westerly direction in place of the easerly direction we have run in the past. The road is not quite as steep, not as long and it is slightly wider, but mainly we don't get that gooseneck as we enter the bridge. We could still do the traditional hill as a fun run. Then we need to ...

![]() CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Freezing rain and sleet have closed schools and offices and caused hundreds of wrecks across North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky. The icy weather snarled traffic across much of western and central North Carolina. The Department of Transportation reported traffic moving under 30 mph on much of Interstate 40 from Winston-Salem to Raleigh and Interstate 85 from Charlotte to Durham. Charlotte Police were responding to dozens of calls of cars overturned as the heaviest freezing rain moved through. The storm has caused no deaths, and only scattered power outages have been reported. Tennessee had declared a state of emergency as a precaution and the eastern part of the state is seeing significant icing. An ice storm warning was issued from the Smoky Mountains, northward through Knoxville, Cumberland Gap and well into Kentucky.

![]() Mystery of the Melungeons Melungeon’s are a group of individuals that reside mainly in the Cumberland Gap area of the Appalachian Mountains. It is believed that they settled in the area around 1795. The true ethnicity of the Melungeons has always been a mystery. There is no clear written or oral record of their true origins. Historically, there has been a huge amount of speculation as to this matter. In the published census records, they have been categorized as white one year and in the next published census that would be listed as a free person of color. For example, in the 1830 Census of Hawkins/Hancock County Tennessee the Collins’ family is listed as free person of color but by the 1850 Census, they are listed as white. Part of the oral history claims that the Melungeons are descendants of Portuguese adventurers that intermixed with Native Americans. Even the origins of the word Melungeon is unknown. One theory is that it originated as mélange which is French for mixed and has mutated over ...
![]() Took the grand tour of Southeast KY via helicopter today. I'm working overtime out of Manchester, and went out to learn the area. Flew via a little ridgetop landing pad in the middle of Leslie County, down through Harlan, back west through the Cumberland Gap, Pineville, London, back to Manchester. Beautiful country except for the strip mines. But there are miles and miles where those would be the only place to land.

![]() With Christmas upon us as we settle in our warm homes to celebrate the holiday I thought that it would be nice to look 150 years back and see where our boys were and what they were doing. Late Decemeber would see the opening engagement of the Vicksburg Campaign at a place called Chickasaw Bayou. Here a bloody fight would last from December 26th till the 29th. The area was covered in dense woods, swamps and lakes which the Federals would have to make their way through to assault the Confederate defenses on Walnut Hills. On the 29th Sherman would make a frontal assault with heavy casaulties before withdrawing. The Confederate victory would keep Vicksburg in Confederate hands. The 52nd Georgia had now been away from home since March and had already been in a fight at Cumberland Gap. They would still at this time be under the command of Brig. General Seth Barton. At Chickasaw Bayou the 52nd would be distinguished for their courage and steadiness throughout the fight repulsing five frontal assaults. This would ...
![]() I never put my track for the Christmas Day/After storm on here. Slight adjustments are likely, but here is my track. (Feel free to throw your opinions out or ideas, since his has "BIG" written all over it) I would go from around Dallas (a bit SW), mainly east to north-central Louisiana, into north-central Mississippi (general area of Jackson), up to near Florence, AL. It then continues N/NE to south side of Nashville, TN to around Danville, KY. This is where it gets convoluted a bit. If the low is strengthening then it goes farther west to around Mount Sterling, KY to Portsmouth. If it is not as deep, then it is going to aim more towards the Cumberland Gap. A secondary transfer will likely form east of the Appalachians around the Baltimore/DC area.
![]() Advent Day 20 THE PIONEER OF SALVATION by Dr. Buist Fanning “In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered” (Hebrews 2:10, NIV). In 1775 Daniel Boone opened a trail through the Cumberland Gap enabling thousands of settlers to cross the central Appalachians and put down roots in Kentucky and points west that were previously closed to them. As a result he became a sometimes larger-than-life figure as one of the quintessential American pioneers, braving danger and hardship to open a rich new world for those who followed them. Hebrews 2 talks about Jesus Christ in similar but incomparably greater terms. He is the “pioneer of salvation” (Heb. 2:10) through whom God will restore His glorious destiny for all mankind. Quoting from Psalm 8 and looking back to Genesis 1, Hebrews reflects on the divine intent for humans in creation: “you crowned them with glory a ...
