The Sycamore Tree

This tree was planted from a cutting of the old sycamore tree that stood several hundred feet west of here on the historic Two Notch Road. Local tradition holds that there had been a succession of sycamore trees at that site used as a landmark or point of reference since the road was an Indian path and that George Washington rested there in 1791.

Marker is on U.S. 1 just west of Timbermill Road, on the left when traveling south.
