jr. I added a map to the picasa site to show you approximately where we were when we took the photos of the Great Wagon Road. I had tried to get them figured out fast enough to add them to our slideshow Saturday night. Unfortunately the ones on my camera weren't great...If I had just thought that evening to look at the ones that I took with my phone....who would have figured that? It was near Molly's Rock park alongside the gravel road that we travelled. Really quite near the park. hmmmmmm.....you know I think that Ernest actually told us that the road was the Buncomb road....so perhaps these shots are the Buncomb road that perhaps were the road that our ancestors travelled LEAVING Newberry rather than the Great Wagon Road that they used coming INTO Newberry....that leaves us a project for the next time we go to Newberry, huh?

Whether the shots are from the Great Wagon Road or the Old Buncombe Road, they are really wonderful photos. Wasn't it amazing (once we entered the forest on the way to Molly's Rock park) that you could actually see the depressions of the road our ancestors traveled just alongside the gravel road we were traveling Saturday? Thanks for sharing this remarkable event. ----- Original Message ----- From: "marsha moses" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 10:06:37 AM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: Re: [SC-BUSHRIVERQUAKERS] Wagon Road Question jr.
