John Oliver Place III
Morning sun filters through the trees at John Olivers Cabin with a few dogwoods in the background…The cabin is almost completly surrounded by split-rail fence also…...The Oliver’s bought land in the Cove in 1826 and this cabin site remained in the family until the Park was established. The house is typical of many found on the eastern frontier in the mid-1850s, and reflects the skills and techniques brought into the mountains by descendants of British and European immigrants. This cabin is located on the Cades Cove Loop Road, in the Great Smoky Mountain N.P.

Beautiful work, Gary! I like the composition a lot. Gorgeous lighting conditions; and you’re right, the dogwoods are just splendid. I sure wish I’d been able to be back there this year for the bloom and all. Take care, Amigo! Cheers! Chris

Such a wonderful story!! A beautiful home & land. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photos & stories.
My husband’s Doyel family had hundreds of acres & homes that now fall within the bounndries of Mammothe Cave Nation Park. Many of his ancestores are buried on the property. We have made a couple of trips through the park, visiting the graves and land. No homes left standing, but a few churches have been preserved. It just gives you this most wonderful feeling. We can’t wait to go back this Oct.
