Zane's Trace

Zane's Trace
дорога Зейна
Дорога между г. Зейнсбергом [Zanesburg] (ныне г. Уилинг, шт. Западная Вирджиния) и г. Лаймстоуном [Limestone] (ныне г. Мэйсвилл, шт. Кентукки). Построена в 1796-1800 Э. Зейном [Zane, Ebenezer] по контракту, полученному им от Конгресса. В обмен Зейн получил от властей несколько земельных участков [Zane's grants], на которых вдоль дороги были созданы поселения Зейнсвилл [Zanesville], Чилликоте [Chillicothe], Ланкастер [Lancaster] и др. Играла важную роль на раннем этапе освоения Фронтира [Frontier]. Параллельно дороге Зейна к востоку от нее позднее прошла Национальная дорога [National Road]
