History buffs invited to walk the Cumberland Trace

A walk led by Lanny Tucker, author of the Green County History Book, "History Among Us"will explore the remnants of the Cumberland Trace, starting at 1:30pmCT, Sunday, March 28, 2010, from the parking lot of the Sav-A-Lot store, 609 Columbia HWY, Greensburg, KY.

The Cumberland Trace was an early north/south road in this part of the country and was a reason for Green County's quick settlement. In fact, settlers on their way to form a fort at what became Nashville, TN, followed the trace through Green Co., KY. "Trace" was an early name for "road," and Nashville is on the Cumberland River, thus "Cumberland Trace."

"History Among Is" went through two printings in just four months in 2008. The book was printed in Columbia, KY, at South Central Printing. -Jelaine Tucker Harlow
