So this is the brainerd mission cemetary...
Brainerd is where I happen to live and named after David Brainerd and the mission that was founded in his name.
en.m.wikipedia.org
Its now a Medium sized suburb of chattanooga..
The original
Chickamaugua Town was built on the edge of south Chickamaugua creek (a tributary that flows to the TN river) which is now a polluted piece of shit. But that doesn't stop the yuppies from kayaking it these days.... I remember doing this it at 15 with many beers and joint's in a john boat. The indians used this (then) pristine creek for fishing, drinking water, mills, irrigation and transportation.
The missionaries moved to this area to tame these heathens and to teach them god... Sigh
.. As well as reading and writing and basic math for integration purposes...
This is the cemetary that was founded in that mission..
Also if you travel from 24 east towards 75 south you will cross over missionary ridge named for those missionaries that traversed over the ridge
To the river to spread the word so to speak...
Missionary's ridge is full of historic civil war battles as well.. One day ill do a write up on the history of that as well.. Except on the bike... Lots of neat things to show around town on that.
Its a shame that all of the indian names have been lost on the headstone...
Tree must be close to 200 years... Lightning sucks..
A little info on the original founder of the area...
Neat story.. John Sevier can suck my dick... Seveirville is named for him and thats the area around gatlinburg...https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sevierville,_Tennessee
He came and attacked the indians when the warriors were away on a war part. Coward.
My favorite message inscribed by the daughters of the american revolution..
Proverbs 22:28
King James Version
28 Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
This goes for land marks or statues you dont agree with or those that offend you.
