ca 8,000 - 500 BC
Early Archaic Period larger Indian populations began to live impermanent or semi-permanent sites, and ,
toward the end of the period, began to cultivate some plants for food, although still relying heavily on hunting and
gathering of wild food
ca. 6000 - 3000 BC
Middle Archaic Period. Subsistence hunting and gathering. American Indian groups traveled through, and
may have encamped, along Rocky Broad River. Stone implements of period excavated in Chimney Rock.
5000 BC until Uriah Stones navigated up an off-shoot of the Cumberland River in 1766, what is now Rutherford
County was habituated by Native Americans.

Late Archaic period. Beginnings of trade and technology. Probable movement of American Indian groups
through gorge on seasonal round. More permanent base camps. ca. 1000 BC – 1500 AD Woodland Period.
Pisgah phase of prehistoric Cherokee culture. (Warren Wilson and Garden Creek sites). Plant domestication and
cultivation. Mound building. (Mound with artifacts excavated twelve miles southeast of Chimney Rock.)

Cherokee use Hickory Nut Gap for travel between mountains and flatlands.
The Hickory Nut Hickory Nut Gorge was a sacred area, or neutral ground of Cherokee and neighboring Catawba
tribes.
When the Catawba Indians ( Catawba means "river people,"the name used by themselves was Iyeye (people) or
Nieye(real people ) met a Cherokee Indian in the Gorge, they could not kill each other as the Gorge was SACRED
ground! ( Note: the concept of the HNG being a" sacred", " mystical, " magical", " spiritual" area is found in
numerous stories of both the Cherokees and Catawba Indians. The following story of " "little people" inhabiting the
Gorge and the sacred stories of the dried leaf of tobacco being a part of that sacredness in the Gorge is a
fascinating study)
Myths develop - Little People. The early settlers found gold, tso-lungh (a magical, legendary tobacco),
legends of talking animals ,the mysterious" Little People ”who lived among the craggy peaks of the gorge and
awesome mountain from which came ominous and sometimes terrifying sounds SEE" THE LITTLE PEOPLE OF OUR

ca.1600-Prior to European contact in the sixteenth century, the native Cherokee in North Carolina subsisted by
hunting and gathering and farming. Their main crops were maize and beans
1673
English explorers James Needham and Gabriel Arthur traverse Hickory Nut Gap.
ca 1730-The earliest settlers in what is now Rutherford County probably came here around 1730. They were
primarily German and Scotch-Irish. Throughout the mountains the majority were the Scotch-Irish like those that
settled in the Cane Creek area and later formed Brittain Church. They brought their own ordained ministers with
them. These Presbyterian Ministers were college trained and served also as educators. These settlers were
becoming educated, and could read their own bibles
ca. 1760
First group of settlers arrive in Hickory Nut Gorge, predominantly Scotch-Irish. They had traveled
down the Great Wagon Road from Pennsylvania
1763, King George set-aside the land west of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina to the Cherokee and
prohibited the entry of white settlers. However, tensions between Britain and the colonies rendered the Proclamation
useless, and settlers began to move westward, encroaching on Cherokee lands
ca 1770
Lost Gold on Round Top Mountain
While traveling on or near Round Top Mountain with a wagon load of gold, several Englishmen were attacked .The
men prepared to ship their gold to Charleston, but Native Americans killed all but one of the Englishmen. The sole
survivor, blinded in the attack, made his way back to England, where he attempted to draw a crude map to the mine.
But to date, no one had found the lost gold mine. The gold is still believed by many to be hidden under some rocks
or in the many caves that dot this mountain directly across from Chimney Rock.
1768:
Tryon County was formed from Mecklenburg County in 1768. Old Tryon County was divided into Lincoln and
Rutherford Counties in April 1779. Rutherford County was named for Brigadier General Griffith Rutherford of Rowan
County , North Carolina;
Brigadier General Rutherford was a famous Revolutionary War soldier. From: http://www.rutherfordcountync.
gov/history.php. See also : http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/rutherg.htm
1776
During the Revolutionary War the citizens of Rutherford County, were troubled by both Indian and Tory attacks. The
Tories under Major Patrick Ferguson camped at Gilbertown and scouted the area for food and supplies. To escape
Ferguson the people took refuse in the following forts: McGaughy; McFadden; Potts; Hampton; Mumfords; and Earle.
General Griffith Rutherford led 2,400 Militia to fight the Cherokee in western North Carolina. In what is now
Murphy, Rutherford established his headquarters and organized soldiers from South Carolina and Virginia to crush
the Cherokee." The patriot militia expedition of September 1776, led by Gen. Griffith Rutherford and known
afterward as the Rutherford Trace, sought to eliminate Cherokees as a British ally and punish them for attacking
white settlements. In one month, Rutherford’s men left dozens of Western North Carolina Cherokee villages in ruins
with hundreds of acres of crops destroyed and livestock killed or seized. " (Michael Beadle, See http://www.

1779
Rutherford County formed from Tryon County. It was named in honor of Griffith Rutherford, one of the most
prominent of the Revolutionary patriots. He led the expedition that crushed the Cherokees in 1776, and rendered
important services both in the Legislature and on the battlefield. It is in the southwestern section of the State and is
bounded by the state of South Carolina and Polk, Henderson, McDowell, Burke and Cleveland counties
1780
The Overmountain soldiers marched through Rutherford County on October 3-5, 1780 on their way to meet
Major Ferguson at the Battle of Kings Mountain. This battle took place October 7, 1780 and was the turning point of
the war. The trail of march has since become known as the "Overmountain Victory Trail." It became the second
national historical trail in America when President Jimmy Carter signed it into law on October 7, 1980. This is a
national historical honor for Rutherford County, as part of the trail passes through the county.
1781
"Life, following the revolutionary War, in Rutherford County was not in the best of conditions. Life offered little. Most
activity took place on the farm: planting of grain, raising cattle and sheep, and growing food for the table. The loom
furnished clothes for the family. Skins from animals were tanned; furs from wild animals were secured to provide
additional clothing. The pioneer homes were built from the surrounding forest. Furniture and furnishings for the
home were also made from the woods of the forest. The plantations and farms were small. Land could be bought for
a nominal fee paid to the state for a grant. Each land owner tilled his soil, sometimes assisted by a slave or two. The
farmer drove cattle and took surplus agricultural products over the best road leading from Morganton to Charleston,
South Carolina. At Charleston at the market they could then buy staple products to take back home. Schooling was
received in the home. The Bible was sometimes the only textbook available"

known as the Logan House, the Red Coach Inn and Pine Gables." The Harris Inn, now known as Pine Gables, is a
large three-story frame building encompassing two log structures. "The two story log structures of the saddlebag
variety (two log houses built on either side of a large chimney) have been raised to three stories and weather
boarded. The log section to the west is approximately 30' X 21'. The log section to the East is approximately 22' X
21'. The massive hand shewn logs used for the walls are cornered with half dovetail cuts. The foundation is irregular
coursed uncut rock. In ca. 1834 the two-story log structure was encased with boards. Ca. 1877 the house was
enlarged with large frame building additions."

First published reports of settlers seeing ghost troops of cavalry and others around
and above Chimney Rock.
"Celestial battle on July 31, 1806. Mrs. Patsy Reaves reported that she and her two children had seen “a very
numerous crowd of beings” atop Chimney Rock. Five years later, a husband and wife reported seeing two armies of
horsemen high above the cliffs. The heavenly combatants, armed with swords, rode winged horses and slashed at
each other in deadly combat. On at least three other occasions, residents reported similar sights. Many thought the
end of the world was at hand." by Robert Williams "Legends of Hickory Nut Gorge
1815
The dirt road was improved and became Hickory Nut Gorge Turnpike. Also known as Drover's Road, it was used by
herders to get cattle, hogs, geese, turkeys, pigs and other animals to market to be sold purchases for goods or cash
needed in outlying mountain communities. See: Drover's Road
1820
The mining interest of the State is now only second to the farming interest.” So wrote a reporter of the Western
Carolinian of Salisbury in 1825. But according to historians Richard D. Knapp and Brent D. Glass in Gold Mining in
North Carolina (1999) the average Tar Heel did not fall victim to gold fever. Nevertheless, there was enough
demand by 1830 for a Charlotte-based Miners’ and Farmers’ Journal to begin publication.

The General Assembly appropriated $12,000, through the Board of Internal Improvements, to complete a road through Hickory
Nut Gap to Asheville.
"With the these improved roads, farmers from Western North Carolina, Tennessee, and Kentucky had an accessible way of
getting their farm products to market, and could greatly increase their supplies and profit by transporting goods by wagons.
However, the best way to market their corn was by feeding it to hogs, cattle, and turkeys. In late fall, farmers gathered their
hogs, cattle, horses, mules, turkeys, or ducks for the trip to markets in Charleston, South Carolina and Augusta, Georgia. The
roads were alive with livestock for the next two months. Men called drovers led these herds of animals to market. The drovers
relied on helpers, usually young boys, to keep the animals moving by cracking whips tied with strips of red flannel. Depending
on the type of livestock, drovers could travel six to twenty miles each day. Hogs, the most numerous animal on the turnpike,
could only travel six to eight miles a day. Every eight or ten miles along the road, there would be a “stand” where animals could
be fed and penned outdoors and the men could find hospitality indoors. Although this route was used by all sorts of traffic, it
gradually received the named of the Drovers' Road." ( By By Alex S. Caton, Director of Education, 199 9Revised by Rebecca
