Station Camp was an Indian trading post and camping ground. The Shawnees, who hunted here and obtained their lead supply in this vicinity, called it "Ah-wah-nee," meaning a grassy place. In 1769, Daniel Boone, Squire Boone, and Joseph Proctor were the first of many pioneers to use the camp, which stood on an old buffalo trace known as War Road, then a direct route from Boonesborough to the East.
