TRAIL OF TEARS - Elkhorn Tavern - Trail of Tears on Waymarking.com

The original Elkhorn Tavern was built around 1833 by William Reddick and his son-in-law Samuel Burks.
In 1858 Burks sold the house and the 313 acres to Jesse & Polly Cox for $3600.00 Cox made several improvements to the tavern including adding white-painted weatherboarding to the exterior and a set of stairs leading to the upper porch.
The stairs allowed members of the Benton County Baptist Society to meet at the house without having to go through a "public house". Another addition was a set of elk horns that Cox placed on the ridgepole, which gave the tavern its name.

As always have fun be safe and
