John Oliver Cabin - Cades Cove
According to the Smoky Mountains National Park historic marker:
Among the first Euro-Americans to settle in Cades Cove, John and Lucretia Oliver arrived here in 1818. Probably by the early 1820s they had completed the 1 1/2 story cabin that you see here. Though its exact construction date is not known, it is one of the oldest structures in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Members of the Oliver family lived here for more than a century.
