According to the ages listed for some of the children, the parents claimed (To obtain lower fares?) they were younger than indicated by the exact birth dates found in later sources.

| Map of the National [Cumberland] Road
"Washington Post," Review of Simon Winchester's book, "The Men Who United the States," (Outlook, 17 Nov 2013)
"John Loudon McAdam, from his native Scotland, taught Americans to abandon the traditional method of road building, as old as the Romans, that featured 'big slabs of rock, the bigger and tougher the better.' Such roads were often treacherous and unreliable. Building roads in Scotland, McAdam discovered the benefits of compaction. To last, he found, a road's top two inches had to be made of compacted stones . . . large gravel. One of the first highways built this way was the Cumberland Road, from Western Maryland across Ohio into Indiana, completed in the 1830s. Crushed gravel proved a durable surface. Roads made that way soon became known as macadam. they had just one drawback--they threw up great quantities of dust when dry. . . ." |
