Poor Fair Good Excellent Extraordinary

The historic marker honors Cherokee Chief Doublehead, who guarded the local area claimed as sacred hunting grounds by both the Cherokee and Choctaw Nations against encroachment by white settlers from the late 1700s to 1807. The train line between Decatur and Tuscumbia is two miles south of Doublehead Resort and is the only railroad that is recognized as a Trail of Tears Route.
