No. But back in 1785 my 5th Great Grandfather was a farmer on land that the Natchez trace went though. He opened a store on a bluff overlooking the river. A town grew around the store and was called Frenchman's Camp. Later named Leflore's Bluff, MS. It is still there today but now known as Jackson, MS. :-)

Hi, Nick: several of the various clubs I belong to in this area (Central Mississippi) routinely have tours up and down the Trace; however, I can't think of any scheduled right off the top of my head. Give me a day or two to check with our club tour schedulers, and I'll get back to you.
I live about 15 minutes South of the Trace (Carthage exit) and routinely drive it when we have to go to Jackson (about an hour - peaceful drive with no commercial vehicles permitted and a 50 mile per hour speed limit - aggressively enforced)! Certainly let me know if you will be in this area - lots of fond memories of Fayetteville and environs!
Warm Regards, Marcus

Nick - Checked all the local clubs of which I have knowledge and no one has tours scheduled on the Trace. Sorry! However, bring your new bride and whatever toy you wish, and we shall create our very own tour!
I'm delivering the Truckstang to the Mustang Museum in Concorde, NC, at the end of August, so if you have the chance, would love to meet you in person. My cell is 601-four one six-678 four.
