The Hiwassee River and the
settlements on its banks were witness to important and ultimately
heartbreaking historical events. Settled around the river,
Charleston and Calhoun were often referred to as the twin cities.
These two southern river towns in Tennessee may be small, but their
place in history is significant and largely untold until now. An
important piece of American history was almost lost until the
residents of these two cities decided this was a story that needs to
be told and a people who need to be remembered. |
