- Along
the Old Federal Road
"Now known as the "OLD FEDERAL ROAD," this primary
travel route was conceived and built to connect Fort Wilkinson,
near Milledgeville, Georgia, to Fort Stoddert, an American
outpost north of Mobile, Alabama. Developed from the 1806-11
postal horse path that followed earlier Native American
paths, the Federal Road subsequently became a primary
travel route for pioneers going to the Mississippi Territory.
The Federal Road functioned as an important link between
Washington, D.C., and New Orleans. Early settlers, of
the area now known as Monroe and Conecuh Counties, in
Alabama included the Middleton and many other South Carolina
families."
