Louis Leflore was my 5th great-grandfather through his son Benjamin. Our family is very knowledgeable about our history, so I'm glad you're sharing this knowledge. We come from the last of the Chakchiuma Tribe who was massacred by DeSoto. Our surviving grandmother Shumaka was forced to join the Choctaws. So although we presently identify with the Choctaw nation, we were originally the Chakchiumas (Red Crawfish) of Mississippi.

My ex-in laws had 200 acres in Hohenwald Tennessee that backed up to the Natchez Trace. Meriwether Lewis’s death site was 5 miles from their home. Big Swan Creek flooded during 2 week long rain and 75 of their acres was under water. After the water receded, I found arrow heads everywhere.

Thank you Mr Skinner for bringing these great stories of the history of our country. Appears that before long there won't be any history books and everything you presented today will be lost with the exception of ones of us who have heard your words. A story I saw today is that students at Yale University want to "repeal" our US Constitution. Sad days ahead.

Brings back memories. I started from the South and traveled the Trace to it's end in the North via motorcycle. A tornado had been through there a couple of weeks prior to my trip and a section of it was closed as the road was still impassable. I asked a woman about the tornado while I was paying for gas. She started to cry as her mom had just died from the tornado. I felt terrible and made it a point not to ask anyone about a disaster anywhere in the vicinity of said disaster. To close to home for such questions. I did have a great time riding this road. Very scenic. I stopped at the Lewis site as well. Did not know I about it prior to the trip. I also saw some Indian mounds where they bury their dead.

Another great one Jerry. You need to do a show on just the harp brothers. There was an “octaroon”(mixed race) free man in Robertson County TN names Elijah Cheek who ran Cheek’s Tavern which was on the old stagecoach road between Nashville and Bowling Green near Portland Tennessee in the early 1800s. Very interesting stories about the man and his tavern. He reportedly would rob and kill travelers to stopped to stay overnight. There is a large cave there with a sink hole far behind above the cave entrance and he was thought it dispose of the bodies in the cave and sinkhole. One story is that a man disappeared and his dog stayed at the sinkhole for days until the dog died.

Still have a piece that I found. No historical markers in that part, though. (At least none that we ran across.)

My paternal ggg Grandfather was one of the first people to settle in this area.He was born in 1749 in Cherbourg, France.He came to the US in the late 1700s and fought in the Revolutionary War with the Americans against the British. He was a military man, a farmer and a fisherman who married a Choctaw lady, my ggg Grandmother, whose name was Susan Butcher.They had 5 children together. They eventually settled in Jefferson county Mississippi where they continued to farm.

​@@jeffreyhershey5754 You seem to choose your favorite presidents in a one-dimensional manner. All three were known for firmness, not backing down--they had backbones. An admirable trait. Unfortunately, President Jackson used his impressive backbone to do a lot of impressively fucked-up shit. The Trail of Tears, for example, rests largely upon the shoulders of Jackson, and he stabbed John Ross in the back (figuratively) deeply & repeatedly in order to get it done. John Ross spent years trying to get the Cherokee nation to be considered for statehood, only for Jackson and Georgia Governor Wilson Lumpkin to push for forced removal _even when offered the peaceful resolution that the statehood option offered._ And none of that is even going into what an absolute shithead he was known to be by his contemporaries. His temper was legendary. He often used his temper and intimidating reputation as a tool of manipulation. He took part in possibly dozens of gun duels in his life, and went to his deathbed with words of genuine hatred for his political enemies. None of this is to say that this nation does not owe a lot to Jackson--the War of 1812 comes to mind. But to name Jackson among the best presidents of these great United States of America is plainly absurd. He was, to be certain, a remarkable individual, but by no means a generally good man.

Most of the men you talk about in this are in my family tree. My 5th great grandfather was the Chickasaw Agent for Mississippi. He knew the Colbert's and signed treaty's with the American government with the Colbert Chiefs, We believe that my 5th great grandmother was a Chickasaw. My 5th great grandfather's signed the 1832 Treaty with the Chickasaw. I should tell you that his brother led the Chickasaw in Battle in 1814 at New Orleans and another of my 3rd great grandfather's fought with Jackson at New Orleans. I have land patents signed by President Jackson for land given to them for service that they used to buy land in Mississippi.

I’m glad to see this nicely done video. Of course his narration is primarily on stories that thread the Trace in early U.S. history because early U.S. history is why we watch Mr. Skinner documentaries. There is much more to know about the Trace. Even the construction of the “modern” parkway (1930s) is now an interesting bit of history. There are numerous picnic stops along the parkway that also provide opportunities to learn about the terrain, vegetation, and wildlife of the region. Commercial vehicles are not permitted on the parkway so all traffic is cars, RVs, motorcycles, and bicycles. Although the parkway doesn’t provide separate bicycle lanes it is a popular bicycle touring route. There are even camping areas for bicyclists only. Cycling the full length of the Trace has been on my to-do list for many years. This vid has stirred me to move it near the top of the list.

Wow this was so cool. Very well done video and such a beautiful drive in a beautiful part of the US. You can certainly see the pride they take in keeping their roadways so beautiful! I live in Laurel County Ky. Pride is a thing of the past. Unless you live In downtown London, which is very gorgeous!!! The backroads are so filled with garbage it's unreal. Seems Noone cares anymore. Very sad. Anyway thanks for this great video and awesome scenery!!

Drove the parkway in spring of 94, one of the prettiest and relaxing trips ever, if I remember correctly the speed limit was 35 mph, would be a sacrilege to drive faster. Just plan beautiful.

Thanks Jerry for another wonderful presentation. Really enjoy them. I rode the Trace on motorcycle from Virginia back in 2002. Spectacular scenery and amazing points of interest. Didn’t know the complete history of course. This now broadens my knowledge and one day would like to go back by car with more time and stop more often. I hope monuments such as these aren’t taken down by the far left wing socialist and progressive liberals like many of the other historical monuments dedicated to the history of our once past great country. MAGA!

So glad to discover this channel. Very interesting. Brad Meltzer Decoded investigates Mr. Lewis's death and was convincing that it was murder. Mr. Lewis, although a melancholy guy, was on a special mission for the President. All his papers were stolen. His wounds could not have been made by himself. Really sad story. The innkeepers came into a lot of money right after his death and moved. Fishy.
