John, <down through Lee County and into Kentucky via the Cumberland Gap - all thanks to Powell Valley resident Davy Crockett.>> I didn't know Davy Crockett lived in Powell Valley. When was that? He was born in TN near Greenville. Encyclopedia Crockett, Davy (David Crockett), 1786–1836, American frontiersman, b. Limestone, near Greeneville, Tenn. After serving (1813–14) under Andrew Jackson against the Creek in the War of 1812, he settled in Giles co., Tenn., and in 1821 was elected to the state legislature. In 1823, Crockett, having moved to the extreme western part of the state, was reelected from his new constituency. I think Daniel BOONE lived in Lee Co. for some time. -eddie
