n. We stopped for a page and paid respects to Native Peoples (pleural meaning not only Cherokee) who populated the whole of our USA and specifically those many who were displaced (and murdered) by ancestor migrations westward.
n. Within these Methodist Exploration Pages, I suggested the possibility that John BR*N and possibly his brothers accompanied those who traveled "The Trail of Tears" Removal of Native Peoples.

>ref.506
n. Of course this is a present day photo map, and the green arrow points to The Old Britton Ch Rd.
