What Historic Land Mark is within 20-30 miles from where you live?

We have the Latzer Homestead founder of Pet Milk just one mile from our home.

Then we have Cahokia Mounds an Indian Reservation 26 miles to the West of us which would put it just 9 miles out of ST. Louis on the East side. The Indians were mound builders.
 
Living in Northern Maryland where I am, it's hard to choose one particular landmark. Ft. McHenry is about 35 miles, Antietam about forty. The grandaddy, though, is Gettysburg, about 60 miles from here.
 
For YEARS Eastman, Ga was the home of Stuckey's Fine candies.They made the pecan log roll and Goo Goo clusters among other candies.They had stores all up and down the eastern seaboard mostly on the interstates.They moved all operations to Tn a few years ago and Eastman lost one of its biggest employers.Back in the 80's we could go down there and buy scrap pieces of candy cheap and feed hogs out with it.If you want to see a hog go crazy just walk up to the pen with a 5 gallon bucket that he knows is full of chocolate and peanuts!About 60 miles west of me is the Andersonville civil war prison that attracts lots of interest every year.
 
Stone City, home of the artist Grant Wood that painted the man with pitchfork and woman standing in front of farm house.
 
Devils Tower is 60 miles or so from me Mt Rushmore is within 150 from me also, if you go 150 or so to the west Yellowstone is there too
 
The home of the Nebraska Cornhusker football team 25 miles east.

Seriously, Homestead National Monument 60 miles south.
 
A friend and I were talking about Stucky's just last week. They were all along Interstate 80 too. The last one I remember seeing is at Brady. It's a Dairy Queen now but it still has the look of a Stucky's
 
6 miles north of hwy 56 which closely follows the old Santa Fe Trail. About 15 miles from Lecompton where the first pro-slavery state constitution was penned back in the pre civil war days of Bleeding Kansas, the building where that govt. met has been restored and is a museum.
 
When we lived in MD I farmed part of the Antietam battlefield.Quite a bit of that land is still in private hands but the goverment ownes an easement to contol development.
 
I live about 5 mile from Lake City Ammunition Plant. About 15 miles away is Independence Mo. home of Harry Truman, and the start of the Santa Fe, California, and Oregon trails. Jesse James hid out all around these parts as well.
 
Speaking of Covered bridges, we HAD the longest single span wooden covered bridge in the world until "Irene"! This is probably one of the last pictures taken before it was gone forever.

You forgot the St. Louis arch in your area didn't you?????????
As for where I am about all that is here is the Lake of the Ozarks one of the WPA projects back in the 30s
 
Historic old Ft Scott,Kansas 25 miles to the west of us..Several original buildings were still there and the rest have been recreated just the way it used to be..

Well let's see--this is Washington DC where i live. There's George Washington's Plantation house complete with experimental barn and still. Arlinton Cemetery; Ford's theater where Linclon was shot and so much more. Close to the farm which is located on the Northern Neck within walking distance of Lighthorse Lee's plantation house--he was a signer the Declaration of Independence; Stratford Hall just up the road somehow related to Robert E. Lee. Battlefield from the civil war all over and Oh yes Yorktown isn't so far off--you know where the Brits came up in the revolutionary war.
 
About 10 miles from Morgans monument,where Confederate Gen. John Hunt Morgan surrendered in West Point,OH.Burial place of Edwin Coppock,a member of John Brown's raid at Harpers ferry, WV. is about 3 mi. away.
 
That is way historic (that whole era and the people involved (like the Sibleys) is kept pretty quiet. Thanks.
 
Well, I am real close to where Harry Ferguson was born and raised Pic 1
Only 30 miles from Belfast's famous shipyard and the Samson and Goliath cranes, the largest cranes in the world. Pic 2

Current home of JB weld inventor. (Hey Nancy,you might get a discount if you stop by and pick up a case to keep all those poppers togeather) :p

Many historical remains and works of Caddo Indians.

Memorial of Alamo hero James Bonham in the town bareing his name.

Two crossings of Red River along with dipping vats used by early cattle drives.

A few memorials to men and women of the Confederacy,yes there were women of the time worthy of notice.

Lakes,parks and other Davy Crockett & James W. Fannin rememberances.

Fortress Louisbourg, Bell Museum, Bell Estate, Cabot Trail, NS Highland Village, Gaelic College...

Lincoln, nm, where the Lincoln county war was fought and a young kid named billy became legend as billy the kid, the town today is very little changed from the days of billy the kid
 
I live in the town that's home of Robert Wadlow the worlds tallest man.My mother went to school with him.There's a life size statue of him 2 miles from my house.Also home to the last navigated dam on the Mississippi.
 
The <a href="http://www.offthebeatenpath.ws/Parks/RangerMassacre/index.html">Phillips Ranger Memorial</a>, site of a Revolutionary War massacre, is in the same town where our kids went to high school
 
Reminds me, I saw a picture in the newspaper the other day of a man wearing a T shirt that said "Levenworth A Gated Community". I thought it was cute.
 
Samn40,

Is there a name for the stones on the beachhead there? I'd like to google more images, but wonder what it is called.
 
I'm about 45 minutes from historic Saratoga race track for thoroughbred race horses. Alot of history at that track! And the national hall of fame of racing.
 
Oops,
Forgot about the Duryea, Lydia Moss Bradley, Fort Creve Couer and probably some others.

Guess where?
 
Patrick Henry National Memorial. Red Hill is Patrick Henry's last home and burial place. It's about 9 miles down the river.
Within a mile on the same side of the river is the Staunton Hill Plantation in Charlotte County. Privately owned and also known as the Bruce Estate. At the beginning of the War Between the States, Charles Bruce organized the Staunton Hill Artillery Company at his own personal expense, but after a brief term of service in the Confederate Army he was compelled by ill health to give up the captaincy of this company for a seat in the Virginia State Senate. There were 11 members of that Artillery Company that were my ancestors. They were stationed at Wilmington NC. for most of the war defending the harbor.

There's Poplar Forest about 30 miles north. Thomas Jefferson long dreamed of a quiet retreat where he could get away from the pressures of public life. His long and distinguished political career kept him from realizing his dream until late in his presidency. Jefferson acquired the 4,800-acre plantation at Poplar Forest through his marriage to Martha Wayles Skelton in 1773. During the Revolution when the British drove him from Monticello in June 1781, he escaped with his family to Poplar Forest, staying in the only dwelling on the property, the overseer's house. During a visit in 1801, a rainstorm left him cooped up in the overseer’s house with numerous children and dogs. Jefferson spent his time— in what was undoubtedly a cramped and noisy setting —computing how long it would take to pay the national debt. According to tradition, it was then that he began to realize the advantages of building a more tranquil place for himself.

Appomattox Va. and of course Appomattox Court house National Historical Park. that's about 35 miles north east and Danville. Last Capitol of the Confederacy - Danville, Virginia.

Halifax co. Va. The Crossing of the Dan in Halifax County. One of the most important events of the Revolutionary War. 30 miles south.

Can go on and on but I'm sure it would get boring. Being this close to Jamestown just is the hot spot for history. Lots of graves in our area from the mid 1700's on. Historical markers all along our highways with lots of information. If you like history Virginia is a grand place to visit.
 
I stopped in a tiny grocery store the other day, walked around looking for something, and there on a shelf they were. A box of Hostess Twinkies. I was tempted, but said "Naw" to myself. Now that I think about it, maybe I oughta go back, buy them and see what I can get for them on Ebay. Only thing is, I don't Ebay, so what good would they do me?

Here in the northwest corner of Louisiana we have a few claims to fame:

The historic and splendid old Municipal Auditorium, home of the Louisiana Hayride in the late 40s and 50s, and the venue in which Elvis, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Johnny Horton, Jim Reeves, Claude King and just about everybody else who was in country music at that time got their starts. Elvis was contracted to the Hayride for two years when he was becoming a superstar.

Forty miles away are the Civil War battlefields of Mansfield/Pleasant Hill/Sabine Cross Roads, where the Confederates halted the Union Red River Campaign under Nathaniel Banks.

Da.Bees was naming his heroes of the Alamo during the Mexican Wars in the 1840s. Well, we have the "coward of the Alamo", Moses Rose, the guy who sneaked out before the fight. He settled in a small community about a mile from my old homeplace. My dad showed me the old abandoned, grown-up cemetery where he was buried when I was just a lad---only we didn't know then that Moses Rose was buried there.

Fifty miles away is Toledo Lake, one of the largest man-made lakes.

Sixty miles away is the beautiful town of Natchitoches, established by the French in the 1740s, the oldest town in the Louisiana Purchase. It has a lot of the flavor of the French Quarter of New Orleans.

Ninety miles away is Fort Polk, a place fondly remembered by many Army recruits, myself included.

This entire area from Texas into Louisiana was peppered with debris from the space shuttle that came apart on re-entry.

And about 65-70 miles away is the farm of James and Nancy Howell!!!

Our town is loaded up with casino boats berthed on the Red River, and they attract a lot of famous entertainers. A lot of movies are filmed here, including one opening next month, "Olympus has Fallen". Barksdale Air Force, home of the B-52, is here.

Some of the famous people from here are Terry Bradshaw, Karl Malone, Robert Parish, Hal Sutton, David Toms. Claude King (Wolverton Mountain, etc.) still lives here about two miles from me, as does James Burton, long-time guitar picker for Elvis.
 
Sweetfeet...Giants Causeway is one of the seven wonders of the world (we think) It has to be seen to be believed...every column is solidified lava and is hexagonal....absolute perfect hexagonals. There is a small amount of the same type of rock formation in Scotland, nearly opposite here and it was thus named the Giant's Causeway. A route for the Irish fokelore giants to get back and forth to Scotland.

If its not to late to post I live in the town that is home to the Missouri State Fair, and the 2015 Red Power Round Up
 
Abraham Lincoln's birthplace is in this county, about 14 miles from me. His first Boyhood home is about 6 miles from here.
 
Entrance to Pisgah National Forest just 8 miles away. Land of the waterfalls, and the infamous Sliding Rock.
Home of Carl Sandberg.
Cherokee Indian reservation about an hour away.
Home of inventor of Moog Synthesiser in Asheville.
Brevard Music Center 20 mins.
 
Knox College, home of one of the Lincoln - Douglas debates (about 1 mile)

Carl Sandburg birthplace (about 1 1/2 miles)

Wyatt Earp birthplace (about 15 miles)

kruser Mansion (about 45 miles. no idea where he was born!) LOL
 
What about the Avery building up there by komatsu? It's where all the heavy old Avery's were built. Yea otherwise I am with you not much big name history round here.
 
Where I farmed here in Arizona for 20 years was a area with a lot of history. 25 miles west of me was a natural fort called Cochise Stronghold. It was surronded by mountains and had only one way in and one way out. Cochise and his band holed up there and was never captured. And to the East about 20 miles was fabled Turkey Creek where Johnny Ringo rode from Tombstone and commited suicide under a tree and his grave is still next to a big tree beside the little road. And a little farther up in the chirichua mountains is the chirichua national mounment, Home to thosands of balanced rocks and stone totem poles of differfnt colors. And starting in 1951 I lived for a few years in Florence Colorado My dad bought a ranch that started at the south city limits of Florence and went South. At that time there was some remains of the old gold smelter on the ranch from the days that they brought the gold ore down from the Cripple Creek area by rail to the smelter. Also in 1994 the government built the big federal supermax prison on a 640 acre block of the land. It is the prison where they have Timothy McVey's partner and the shoe bomber and several of the terrorist group. My dad retained a small portion of the mineral rights when he sold the ranch and the government forced him to sell them his minerals when they built the prison.
 
25 miles East, in Sioux City is the grave of Seargent Charles Floyd, the only person to die on the Lewis and Clark expedition. 1 person on a 2 year trip through "new" country is a pretty good record. Strange thing is it was when his appendix burst that got him.
 
The North end of Lake Glimerglass, that inspired the novelist, James Fenimore Cooper, to write his novel "Last Of The Mohicans. Also boardring our property Is Hyde Hall which was built about 1790?,(on property granted to Gov. George Clarke by the king of England) by grandson George Hyde Clark. Was the biggest mansion in the colonies. Also our homestead Clinton Camp Farm played host to General James Clinton who set up Camp over the winter to dam up Otsego Lake (Lake Glimmerglass) to raft his Continental Army down the Susquehana to link up with Col.Butler's 4th PA Regiment, and travel on to join with George Washington at Valley Forge.

At the south end of Otsego lake, 12m. Is Cooperstown. Home of Baseball, where Abner Doubleday was said to have invented the sport.
You can google these names and locations and spend hrs. injesting the info.

Stumbled upon it by accident-just west of Elkhorn is a marker for the first airplane flight in Nebraska! Very nice, open area!
 
Does Mt Rushmore qualify? Wild Bill Hickok's Grave. Saloon #110 where he was killed? Wounded Knee Massacre site? Where TRea "Sue " was found?
Joe Foss life size Bronze atatue? Mounted rainbow trout caught by Calvin Coolidge?
 
About 4 miles from downtown Mankato, Mn. Site of the largest mass execution in U.S. history. 150 years ago we hung 38 Sioux Indians for their part in the Dakota war. Every year passing we become more ashamed of that event. Each Sept. they hold a "pow-wow" in Mankato's Sibly park as a time of healing and reconciliation whereby the whites try and seek forgiveness from the Indians for what was a tragic event. We do everything we can to try and make it right with them except give them what is rightfully theirs.---The land here in So. Mn.---
 
That Grant Wood house in the painting, is in Eldon, Iowa, about 30 miles from here. Wyatt Earps boyhood home for a short time, Pella, Ia, 16 miles, John Waynes birthplace, Winterset, Ia. 60 miles, John Deere tractor plant, Waterloo, Ia, Rock Island Arsenal, one of the Quad cities of Ia and Ill. Sullivan Bros also in Waterloo, as mentioned before, 100 miles north. Not quite so famous, county K hiway where we drag raced our cars at least once a week back in the 60"s. Had 1/4 mile start and finish marked out!! Now that I remember!

Yep and little known fact about it was it has a design flaw. As per what it should have been it was prefab and when put up should have been a bolt up all the way to the top but once all up it had about a foot or 2 that should not have been there so they used winches etc to pull the two parts together then bolted it as it should have been
 
Might not be a landmark except to us locals but the stream running through our property Lincoln crossed going to Danville il to practice law. In my yard is a big sign recognizing this creek as his crossing. Our road is called Lincoln Trail Road. We kinda think it"s unique. A couple miles down the road a plaque indicates the farm a fellow friend of his and doctor owned.
 
We live about 12 miles from the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers, which form the beginning of the Ohio River!
There is a State Park there, along with the foundations of the original Fort Pitt. And, the Block house is there, too. I think it is a replica built much later than the original. It is open in summer for visitors to look inside of it. And, the park is used for shows, and other things. there is a large lighted fountain at the Point, where the 2 rivers join.
 
Forgot. This is the home of Albert Gallatin. His farm Friendship Hill overlooking the Monongahela River.
 
Old, check your history. Bagnell Dam was the last major dam and the largest dam in the USA to be 100% privately financed. Union Electric (Now Ameren MO) footed the bill, including relocating roads and entire towns.

CCC did some work on the Glaize arm in what is now Lake Of The Ozarks State Park.
 
About 11 east of me in Iowa is where Johnny Carson was born & 7 hr drive NW of where I am now in Yukon Canada is where the Gold Rush of 1896 was.
 
Jay,
Albany/Fort Orange, in colonial days is also the farthest inland deep seaport on the entire eastern seaboard, excluding the St. Laurance Seaway connecting the Atlantic Ocean to the Great lakes, Clinton's Ditch/ Erie Canal/ NYSbarge canal, was the very first inland waterway linking the east to the great western frontier, and Great Lakes, sparking the American Industrial Revolution.

Right after WWII, the FAA came up with an idea of having "model air parks" throughout America. The idea being that aviation would become as common as the automobile-maybe even replacing the car. Well, they built one model air park in 1946. It's loccated on the Northeast side of Eldon, MO.

Eldon has another claim to fame. Paul Henning's wife used to Summer here and stayed in a local hotel. This hotel became the "Shady Rest" hotel and Eldon became better known as Petticoat Junction. Lot's of curves, you bet. Even more when you get to the junction.
 
I think thats mighty dang good considering how tall the arch is. The sun shining on it would move it that much.
 
Forgot One - 20 miles from the home of billonthefarm and Wrigley!
Still raising cattle since 1894 - But starting to show thier age! LOL
a103998.jpg
 

Three Camp Meadow is about .2 miles from my house. What? You never heard of it? Well, back when the early settlers first came in the sixteen hundreds, that is where the Indians camped for a few days every year when on their north-south travels.
 
Iron for the civil war battleship, the iron-clad "Monitor" was made at an iron furnace less than five miles from me. Iron ore was mined on part of my farm. Picture is of Buckeye Furnace, which is also close by, but not the one that produced the iron for the Monitor.
a104002.jpg
 
About 15 miles southwest we have the Union Covered bridge, west of Paris, Mo. About 20 miles southeast Mark Twain boyhood home at Florida, Mo. Also a few Civil War battle markers, just dont remember all them. Scott
 
The Slater Mill built in 1793, birthplace of the
American Industrail Revolution, is less then 8mi.
from my place.
Also not far from the home of that great American
Barney Fwrank, probably less then 50mi. tho I do
not weally want to know.
 
Gateway to Yellowstone and Teton park here. From Idaho Falls it's about 100 mi. to either one.

ALSO, Rigby, Idaho 15 miles from here is where Philo T. Farnsworth invented the TV.
 
Tom, Here in central Wisconsin I drove past a historic looking sign about 20 yrs ago. I backed up to read it. It was just inside a farmer"s fenceline. It said "In the year 1692 not one thing happened here".

Wish I could find that once more.

Tommy,
In early Oct 2010 my wife and I were following the Louis & Clark trail to the west coast. We stayed overnight in Three Forks. That area from Ft.Benton, thru Great Falls, down thru your area, then where the river splits 3 ways is absolutely wonderful. Early next morning driving south along the Jefferson R. on a rural hwy with little traffic....was one of the best days of my life. Deer and antelope everywhere. We drove over the Lemhi Pass later that day. Never will forget that. When you die, you can't go to heaven....you are already there!
LA in WI
 
Rod, In Oct 2008 we drove from Wisconsin thru your area....east end of Maine, north thru NB to watch the tides near Moncton, thru Truro (more tides) and to Halifax. After coffee and cookies with Carol & Murray Elliot while looking at his Ford 8N, we went up the coast and around Cabot Trail, then to Ft. Louisbourg, then PEI, Quebec City, Ottawa and home. Wonderful trip. I am a history nut and you really have the history!
The late Hugh MacKay grew up NW of Halifax area and he told me how folks around there loved their black rum. We stopped in Baddeck to buy a bottle of the local favorite; sure kept me warm the following winter nights! At that time I didn't know you lived there.
LA in WI
 
Vadave,
50 yrs ago I was stationed at Ft. Myer, member of "The Old Guard". It was easy to drive my Ford around that area then, but now at army reunions the traffic is just crazy.
I think Stratford Hall was Robert E. Lee's birthplace.
Curious...do you have a tractor in DC area?
Pretty soon I want to follow Booth's trail after he shot Lincoln, then tour St Petersburg battle fields and then Appomattox.
LA in WI
 
Ah but is was to be a all parts fit on the ground so all fit when up. I knew one of the engineers who was with or close to the design team and he said he would NEVER go up in it due to the fact it was not as it should be and should not even be standing as it is
 
Well I know it was in fact a WPA project at first but ya may have gone private mid term. As for towns yes old Linn Creek if your a diver can be seen under water and then there is a road called F road up in Sunrise Beach that if you do not know the road you can/will go swimming due to the fat the road ends not at the lake but in fact in the lake as in no warnings not signs no nothing you just drive around a curve and you see a hill going down then water. I know at least of 100 cars trucks and machine that went swimming due to that
 
I live about 10 miles from Reed Gold Mine, 20 from the Hezikah Alexander homesight, and around 30 to 35 from one of several places claimed to be the birthplace of Andrew Jackson.

If you want to call it historic, and it has been around for around 40 years, I'm also about 12 miles from the Charlotte Motor Speedway, Lowes Motor Speedway, or whateve they are calling it at the moment.

Personally Id like to think I live closer to what my little girl calls, "The middle of nowhere", but unfortunately the last 18 years has seen too much growth around me to call it that anymore.....
 
not to far from ray as i'm only about 15 miles from Malabar Farm.and i have property on the Greenville Treaty Line.
 
I live about five miles from Seagrove, North Carolina supposed to be the pottery capital of the world. There are over a hundred potters in the area. Many of them still make traditional pottery for cooking and eating from. Others make a variety of more modern designs.
 
Carnation Farms at Carnation, WA is near here. The Carnation Milk folks.
Boeing B-29 plant where the 737 is now built and Kenworth (Paccar)plants are within a mile of our house.
Seattle Center and the Space Needle are just up the road too.
Boeing Field where the B-17's were built and the Museum of Flight are between there and here.
Snoqualmie Falls power plant which is the oldest hydroelectric plant west of the Mississippi.
Not as old as things back east but interesting and historic none the less.
 
Ft. Sumter. Lots of other historic places. My first FIL's lake house lot was on a part of Francis Marion's farm. The movie "The Patriot" loosely portrayed him. In the Movie there was a party at The Middleton House where a ship was blown up in the river. That is only a couple of miles from where I live.
Ron
 
Of nationally known, Indiana, PA hometown of actor Jimmy Stewart 15 miles away, Flight 93 memorial 50 miles away. Lots of state and local historic sites around.
 
Used to be just down the road from you. Was stationed at Granite DCity Depot before I retired from the Army. Now...I can see the San Jacinto monument from my back yard in La Porte Texas.
 
You passed right by... 10 minutes away from the bridge where you crossed over the mountain.
There is a lot of history around here... you saw some of the French portion of it. There is as much or more Scottish history.
I used to talk to Hugh quite a bit on here although I never did meet him. He was quite a character...
I dunno if I'd say black rum is a big thing around here. Certain quarters I suppose... Regular old white Captain is as much a staple as anything... or Crown Royal...
You can make another trip and see all the things you missed last time you were here.

Rod
 
It is on E. Maiden St in Washington. Rt 40 turns into E. Maiden St and Jefferson Ave in the city and back into Rt 40 on the western side of Washington.
