Preserving Brown's Tavern For Years To Come

Brown's Tavern
National Trust for Historic Preservation

Brown’s Tavern - sitting on nine acres near Brown’s Ferry - is older than the City of Chattanooga, with a history that includes the Trail of Tears and the Civil War.

Recently, the American Battlefield Trust purchased the site - agreeing to transfer it and two other properties to National Park Partners.

Tricia Mims is executive director of National Park Partners.

Anthony Hodges is past president of the former Friends group, president of the Tennessee Civil War Preservation Association - and a color bearer for the American Battlefield Trust.

 

Ray is the host and producer of Scenic Roots, Mondays - Thursdays at 3 PM on WUTC.
