Title: Chasley, Monroe County, Alabama
Creator(s): Highsmith, Carol M., 1946-, photographer
Date Created/Published: 2010 May 1.
Notes:
Built with slave labor and finished by Arthur Foster, Jr., and George Washington Foster, sons of the original owner. The late Dr. Rutherford (the great-great-grandson of the original owner) Burnt Corn is located at a historic crossroads near the source of Burnt Corn Creek and the intersection of two trading paths. The town and the creek may have been named for an incident in which passersby found a pile of parched corn, a food often used by Creek Indians when traveling. In 1798 the area was included in the Mississippi Territory but was controlled by the Creek Nation. Between 1805 and 1811 the area became a stop on the Federal Road through the Creek Nation. Settlers in the area started farms worked by African American slaves.
