Fort Huff 1760

This book is about the original settlers of my hometown and how they survived harsh times. They thought they had a land deed; instead, it was a marriage license to an Indian princess.

Fort Loudoun is located in East Tennessee, on the south side of the Little Tennessee River about four miles east of Vonore, Tennessee. Field crews excavated the site from May 1975-August 1976. A research laboratory was established on the Vanderbilt University campus for storage, processing and analysis of the artifactual materials. Detailed records, drawings, maps, charts and photographs of these findings and of fort reconstruction and interpretation are included in this publication sponsored by the Tennessee Wars Commission.
