Brown's Ferry
About 3.3 miles north, near the route of the Great War and Trading Path, John Brown, a Cherokee half-breed, established a ferry and tavern in 1800. It was much used by drovers going to and from markets. Legends say that some were robbed and murdered here.
Marker is at the intersection of Browns Ferry Road and Cummings Highway (U.S. 11), on the right when traveling south on Browns Ferry Road.
