This tag has been sitting to long so I moved it. Old location
New location. This guy was the real deal. The Daniel Boone of Mississippi and Alabama. This was his home and is his finial resting spot.
I grew up about about three miles south of this statue and remember when it was erected, 50 years ago this year. Great history around Sam. There should have been a movies made about him. Read about Sam before you ride, then you might stay and view the statue for a long time. Hints of location, north of Meridian, south of Dekalb. Good roads from any direction. Enjoy your ride on 39.
