Bethel Springs Hurst Nation Historical Marker
Posted on September 12th, 2007 by admin
This marker is in Bethel Springs, TN. Word is that almost a century after his death, the people of Purdy refused to allow the parker to be placed in their town. They compromised by letting them put it down the road in Bethel Springs. I would love to hear from someone with some first hand evidence of this event (placing of the sign).
