Madonnas of the Trail Historical Markers

Honoring "pioneer mothers of the covered wagon days," these twelve impressive and identical Daughters of the American Revolution monuments trace the westward movement of the nation. Found one per state from Maryland to California, the monuments are all along or near U.S. Route 40, sometimes called the Old Trails Road, which had its early 1800s inspiration as the National Road from Maryland to Illinois.
