Over the past six months we have been working on a Historic Signage Project thanks to a grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission in partnership with Friends of Little River Canyon. These grant funds have made possible the marking of 118 sites throughout DeKalb County. Be on the look out in your area for these historic sites.

Such a great experience working with this team and we’re looking forward to this documentary about Little River Canyon.

We had a lovely visit with the Watkins family from Washington D.C. who were given a personalized tour of the NPS Certified Trail of Tears National Historic Trail Sites in Fort Payne. Larry is a descendant of Jack and Martha Pack who were enslaved persons owned by Elizabeth “Betsy” Pack and were removed on the Benge Detachment on the Trail of Tears. We look forward to learning more from Larry about his ancestors from his extensive research.
