Route and stops in Tennessee.
In Greenville, TN, and Andrew Johnson National Historical Site and National Cemetery.
Our 336th National Park Site.
Andrew Johnson's and family home.
The grounds behind the home with a spring constantly
watering blackberries--YUM!!
A. Johnson's tailor shop. The original building is now inside the Visitor's Center and Museum.
At his library on the Tusculum College Campus.
Johnson's gravesite in the National Cemetery.
Greenville is also the "Capital" of the short-lived state of Franklin.
It was once part of North Carolina, but felt left out
because they were on the western side of the Eastern
Continential Divide. They were self-governed, printed their own money, but were never recognized as a state.
Franklin lasted about three years before becoming part of Tennessee.
This beautiful log building was the "capitol" of Franklin.
