The Jesse Barnes family settled this property in 1836, and it became one of the first stops out of Independence on the Santa Fe, California, and Oregon Trails. Travelers' diaries, letters, and memoirs often noted overnight camping there or securing lodging in the Barnes home. Today the site is known as Cave Spring.
