In 1872, a real estate man named John Beaumont donated 10,000 young maple trees in exchange for a payment of back taxes of 116. Macon is now known as the *City of Maples* with over 275,000 maple trees. Scores of immigrants from Kentucky and Virginia ventured into the region as early as 1829. A nearby trail, called the Bee Trace, became a popular pioneers* path to search for honey. This pursuit brought many travelers through the region. Later, deposits of coal would bring vital industry to the area. Macon offers the amenities and ambiance of a small, friendly city. Cultural, social, civic, and educational opportunities create an excellent quality of life.
