The next two miles are part of Military Road used in transporting Indians to Oklahoma Territory between 1832 and 1841. From a group of 16,000 Cherokees, 4,000 died en route. Other tribes moved west included the Chickasaw and Choctaw. The great war chief Yishemingo passed by here in 1838, and he died and was buried on the trail near Little Rock.
