Family tree at Mama's Farmhouse that has the name LAWSON. Lawson's grandad was named after someone with the last name Lawson.
After filling up at Mama's, we drove through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park veering off for the scenic drive to Clingmans Dome tower. You drive for 7 miles to the Clingmans Dome trailhead, then you hike up a very, very steep, half-mile walk up to Clingmans Dome tower and the highest point in the Smokies (6,643 feet). Of course, on the way up they have 5 or 6 areas to stop and get your breath which is needed with the high altitude.
