The tiny town of Creelsboro on the Cumberland River, home of the natural Rock House, was a popular spot for food and walks and water over the holiday. Kathy Campbell's Creelsboro Store was packed. The historical marker across from her store reads, "Laid out, 1809, named for Elijah and Elza Creel, pioneers whose son, Reuben, served US in Mexico; his son Enrique served Mexico in US. An interpreter for Gen. W. T. Ward during Mexican War, Reuben stayed on there, was appointed US Consul, 1863, by Pres. Lincoln. Enrique was Governor of Chihuahua State, 1903 to 1906 and Mexican Ambassador to US, 1906 to 1909." Comments | Permalink
