The Natchez Trace is a deeply historical pathway, evolving from ancient Native American trails into a crucial early American trade route connecting Nashville to Natchez. Today, the Natchez Trace Parkway preserves this legacy, offering a 444-mile scenic drive through Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi. This national parkway allows visitors to experience the natural beauty and historical significance of the region, with opportunities for hiking, biking, and exploring preserved sites like Native American mounds and historic "stands." It serves as a poignant reminder of the diverse cultures and pivotal moments that shaped the early development of the American South. M. Neville (1932-2024), a popular artist, native of W.
