Hungry Mother State Park

I'm at New Market Viginia for a couple of days. I passed Hungry Mother state park. Horrible name, that came from a sad, sad story. Back in pioneer days, a settlement was attacked by Indians. A mother and her small son escaped. After the mother collapsed after exhaustion, the small boy continued and actually found help. All he could say was "hungry mother". The small boy lead the men of the other settlement to her, where they found her dead. So....so close to Mother's Day, let's not forget this sad, sad story. The value of a good mother.
