Abstract:

The Marryin' Tree, or Big Lynn, of Little Switzerland, was cut down in January 1965, because it had become a hazard to passing traffic. The tree was registered by the National Forest Association as the champion of the linden species in the country and was estimated to between 500 and 600 years old.
