Twitty's Fort

This Twitty's (sometimes spelled Twetty) Fort marker was placed by the Boonesborough Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1937. It commemorates a Native American attack on the road-cutting party of Daniel Boone while opening Boone Trace in the spring of 1775. Capt. William Twitty and his slave, Sam, are reportedly buried at this site. Courtesy of Friends of Boone Trace, Inc.
