Abstract:

Davidson has been on the mainline for ages, many adventurers and travelers chronicling their stays in the region. One of the first to visit, German doctor John Lederer, came on an exploration trip from Virginia in May of 1670. His account chronicles his trip to Sara, in the vicinity of the trading path that crossed the Yadkin River, a route used by modern travelers today.
