I love all the stories of Cades Cove! Tks for sharing! 👏🏻🧑🏻‍🦰🇨🇦

Cades Cove is my most favourite place on earth too visit. I look forward to get too go again...💕

WHAT A WONDERFUL GUY, i COULD LISTEN TO HIM AL DAY AND THEN SOME.

We just went this past week. Such a beautiful place! I could sit and listen to these stories all day. I tried to imagine what it was like to live there as we drove through the cove. His stories help.

Great story... Only live about 50 miles north and visit every chance i get.... Never get tired of this place

Love Mr. & Mrs. McCaulley's stories!

have been to cades cove numerous times and each time I go to the smokies I make it a point to visit-beautiful!

Love Cades Cove and the Smoky Mountains.

Very nice!!

I live in Sunshine. People try and call Cameron Road across the river "Kinzel Springs." Well, I don't live in Kinzel Springs, I live in Sunshine. It hurts me that new people move here from far away and try and name things after themselves, or they call places by names that they just aren't. We've taught our kids the proper names to try and keep history alive here in Townsend. My husband's Great Great Grandfather was Big Will Walker of Walker Valley which people now call Tremont. He had Mary...Mary had Ruby, and Ruby was my father in law's Mom...and my husband's grandmother. My father in law was born in a little cabin on the Little River in the curves between Townsend and Walland. Of course the cabin no longer stands. They all still look the same. The Walker Family has some very strong physical traits. Even my youngest son still looks just like Grover and Big Will. When the Rockefellers would visit, they'd come in limousines...and everybody in Sunshine and Dry Valley would place bets on whether or not they'd make it over Rich Mountain. My parents made their way to Blount County via Virginia when it was first settled, to Harlan County Kentucky where my parents were born. And then on to Blount County. And I married one of the Sharpe Boys from down on the river. And here we still sit...in Sunshine. Not Kinzel Springs. It's hard keeping history alive today...even if it's only by memory. But, we try.

Great history.

wonderful !!!

Don't live far from Cade's cove and never get tired of going there

John was an Uncle of mine.

I bought a tape years ago talking about this Cherokee woman that married white man and and they was a Storyteller that told the story it's too bad that the state of Tennessee didn't have that type so they could make some DVDs and record it and sell it to people it would make such a difference and showing them what happened at Cades Cove

my great-grandfather was a reneau. i dont know if you heard of that name but i was always told that his great aunt was a tipton and live in that house.

My 3rd GGrandfather, James Allen Oliver was kin to John Oliver of Cades Cove.

Cades Cove, isn't that where that poor little Dennis Martin disappeared back in the 60's?

My uncle got killed at ALCOA in 1941, but had lived in Happy Valley, Calderwood, Chilhowee, TN.
