The most familiar name, Cherokee, comes from a Creek word "Chelokee" meaning "people of a different speech." In their own language the Cherokee originally called themselves the Aniyunwiya (or Anniyaya) "principal people" or the Keetoowah (or Anikituaghi, Anikituhwagi) "people of Kituhwa." Although they usually accept being called Cherokee, many prefer Tsalagi from their own name for the Cherokee Nation (Tsalagihi Ayili). Other names applied to the Cherokee have been: Allegheny (or Allegewi, Talligewi) (Delaware), Baniatho (Arapaho), Caáxi (or Cayaki) (Osage and Kansa), Chalaque (Spanish), Chilukki (dog people) (Choctaw and Chickasaw), Entarironnen (mountain people) (Huron), Gatohuá (Creek), Kittuwa (or Katowá) (Algonquin), Matera (or Manteran) (coming out of the ground) ( Catawba), Nation du Chien (French), Ochietarironnon (Wyandot), Oyatageronon (or Oyaudah, Uwatayoronon) (cave people) (Iroquois), Shanaki (Caddo), Shannakiak (Fox), Tcaike (Tonkawa), and Tcerokieco (Wichita). **
The Old Laws forbid intermarriage into one's own Clan, the Maternal Clan. The Paternal Clan was not considered. The child was of the Tribe and Clan of the mother, not the father.
Cherokee
North American tribe, of the Iroquoian linguistic family and the Southeast culture area. The Cherokee played an important role in colonial America and in United States history; they remain one of the largest tribes in the United States.
Cherokee History
Archaeological and linguistic evidence indicates that the Cherokee migrated in prehistoric times from present-day Texas or northern Mexico to the Great Lakes area. Wars with the Iroquois tribes of the New York area and the Delaware tribes pushed them southeast to the Allegheny and Appalachian mountain regions in modern North and South Carolina, Tennessee, and northern Georgia and Alabama.
--There the Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto encountered them in 1540. In 1715 smallpox reduced their population to about 11,000. During the British and French struggle for control of colonial North America, the Cherokee generally sided with the British,and during the American Revolution the tribe aided Great Britain. In
--1785 they negotiated a peace treaty with the United States, but Cherokee resistance continued for a decade thereafter. In 1791 a new treaty reconfirmed the earlier one; part of Cherokee territory was ceded to the United States, and the permanent rights of the tribe to the remaining territory were established. Between 1790 and 1817, about 3000 of the tribe migrated west of the Mississippi, becoming known as the Western Band.
--In 1820 the tribe established a governmental system modeled on that of the United States, with an elected principal chief, a senate, and a house of representatives. Because of this system, the Cherokee were included as one of the so-called Five Civilized tribes.
--In 1827 they drafted a constitution and incorporated as the Cherokee Nation. Meanwhile, valuable gold deposits were discovered in tribal lands, which by previous
cessions had been reduced to about 2,830,000 hectares (about 7 million acres) in northwest Georgia, eastern Tennessee, and southwest North Carolina.
--In 1819 Georgia appealed to the U.S. government to remove the Cherokee from Georgia lands. When the appeal failed, attempts were made to purchase the territory.
In retaliation the Cherokee Nation enacted a law forbidding any such sale on punishment of death.
--In 1828 the Georgia legislature outlawed the Cherokee government and confiscated tribal lands. Cherokee appeals for federal protection were rejected by President
Andrew Jackson. In 1832 the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the Georgia legislation was unconstitutional; federal authorities, following Jackson's
policy of Native American removal, ignored the decision.
--About 500 leading Cherokee agreed in 1835 to cede the tribal territory in exchange for $5,700,000 and land in Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). Their action was repudiated by more than nine-tenths of the tribe, and several of the groups were later assassinated.
In 1838 federal troops began forcibly evicting the Cherokee. Several hundred escaped to the North Carolina mountains, purchased land, and incorporated in that state;
they were the ancestors of the present-day Eastern Band.
--Meanwhile, most of the tribe, including the Western Band, were driven west in a more than 480-km (about 300-mi) forced march, known as the Trail of Tears.
The march west included 18,000 to 20,000 people, of whom about 4000 perished through hunger, disease, and exposure. In Indian Territory the Cherokee reorganized their government under their chief, John Ross.
--During the American Civil War, after great internal conflict, the tribe sided with the Confederacy; a postwar treaty with the United States freed the black slaves of tribal
members. Under the General Allotment Act of 1887—uncompromisingly resisted by the Cherokee—plots of tribal land were forcibly allotted to individual members.
--The government of the Cherokee Nation was dissolved, and its people became U.S. citizens when Oklahoma achieved statehood in 1907. Surplus lands were
parceled out by the federal government, and in 1891 the tribe's western land extension, the Cherokee Strip or Cherokee Outlet, was sold to the United States;
in 1893 it was opened, mostly to white settlers, in a famous land run.

When the English-designated "emperor" of the Overhill Towns was ask to go to London with Sir Alexander Cumming to meet King George II, Quatsy was ill and Moytoy would have been about 90 years old if the year of his birth is right. Instead, the principal Chief of Tellico sent Quatsy's brother (Kollannah), Shallelockee Kettagusta (a son), Seayagusta Oukah Ulah (a son), Attackcullaculla (a son), Clogoittah (a son) and Tathtowie (Tistoe, another son). By "son" the Cherokees were understood to mean any younger male clan relative of the mother: Quatsy's clan was Wolf, one of the four main clans of the Algonquian Indians. The only member of the delegation who was not a member of the principal family of Tellico was Ounakannowie.

He was buried in The Great Mound, Nikwasi, Franklin, North Carolina.
• Thomas was well educated, but did not want to participate in the family business for other brothers and sisters were heavily involved. When but twenty years old, Thomas departed Plymouth England bound for the lands across the sea, arriving in Jamestown Virginia late 1627. Because of his age, Thomas could not apply for a land grant. Thomas found a small, unoccupied cave a short distance from Jamestown. He brought many supplies with him unknowing the future, and what it would bring. He managed to live throughout the winter in the relative comfort afforded inside the naturally insulated home. By trial and error he learned many different trapping methods that first winter, and managed to process a moderate number of valuable furs. By 1630 Thomas had taken to wife, Pride, a Shawnee woman about eight years younger. To their union two children were born that survived, a son named Trader, and a daughter named Pasmere.

• Fur Trade - Shipping Info: 1635. The Carpenter family of Devonshire & Plymouth England was small sailing ship owners, many of which were leased out to the East India Trading Company, an affiliation dating to the formation of that company Decembr 31, 1600. We have documented ownership of fifteen different ships owned by the Carptenter family, those of which were involved with moving furs between the Gulf Ports & Glasgow, or Dublin, and trade goods for North America. These ships usually made stops both directions at Barbados where the family had banking connections set up. We have also proved Thomsas Pasmere, Trader, and Trader Tom Carpenter made regular trips to Barbados, and on occasion to Glasglow, and Dublin aboard these ships. These ships were small and fast, often able to make the crossing from Scotland and Ireland in less than thirty days. They were shallow draft ships, capable of handling shallow water ports with ease.
The first documented trip made by Thomas Pasmere Carpenter occurred April 1640, sailing from Maryland to Barbados aboard the Hopewell, and returning on the Crispian in September 1640. He made another trip in March 1659 departing Charleston South Carolina aboard the Barbados Merchant, returning on the Concord in August 1659. We have not validated these four ships were owned by the Carpenter family. Ownership of the following ships documented as being owned by the Carpenter family of Devonshire & Plymouth England.

• Chronology: 1674, Running Water Village, Tennessee. Chronology: Tennessee, Running Water Village. Thomas Pasmere Carpenter was an early immigrant to Jamestown Virginia, and was awarded a 10-acre lease in Jamestown City County early 1628. By 20 September 1628, he had abandoned the lease when it was re-granted to Robert Marshall. Thomas Pasmere Carpenter was then 21 years old. Thomas Carpenter had left Jamestown to live with the Indians, and married a Shawnee woman by 1630 at age 23. He had one son who survived ... Trader Carpenter b. 1635, who along with his wife and father's family was driven out of the Virginia area to an area further south by the Iroquois 1660. The Cherokee allowed one group of Shawnee to locate in South Carolina to act as a buffer between the Cherokee and Catawba. At this precise time the Cherokee were known to have at least 63 independent "towns." The Carpenter group were told by the Cherokee leaders they could move deeper into the Cumberland Basin of Tennessee where the Shawnee settled and began building villages. The first village built by Thomas and Trader Carpenter was Running Water ... The erudite Carpenters were master traders and soon had a thriving business trading with all Natives without any problems, they were respected and trusted members of local tribal societies. They regularly transported furs to the Natural Shallow ports located at rivers ending in the Gulf of Mexico in Alabama and Georgia for export, in return providing much needed supplies to the Natives. They had established banking connections in Barbados, and in London. Thomas Pasmere Carpenter died at Running Water Village about 1675, and had two children that we know about, Trader Carpenter, and Pasmere Carpenter. Pasmere married the grandfather of Cornstalk Hokolesqua (Shawnee) about 1660. Cornstalk's father Akulusska married Shawnee Woman about 1681. Trader Carpenter had several sons and daughters, but we have not been able to document but one, a son by name Trader Tom Carpenter b. about 1660.

----1750s, he fought with the French against the British during the French and Indian War.
--- 1763 he led an expedition of warriors against white settlements along Muddy Creek in Greenbrier County in what is now West Virginia. Over the next decade, he continued to lead the resistance to white encroachment into the Ohio River Valley.
--- In the early 1770s, Chief Cornstalk became the leader of a confederacy of Indian tribes living in Ohio, including the Shawnee, Wyandots, Delawares, and Mingos.
--- Oct. 10, 1774, he led a large war party against troops from Virginia. The battle took place at **Point Pleasant, near the juncture of the Ohio and Kanawha rivers in present-day West Virginia. Both sides suffered heavy losses, and Chief Cornstalk later signed a peace treaty with Virginia governor Lord Dunmore.
** The Battle of Point Pleasant was considered a turning point in the war against the Indians and a precursor of the American Revolutionary War. During the battle, one-half of General Lewis' commissioned officers, including his brother, Colonel Charles Lewis, were killed, as were 75 of his non-commissioned soldiers. Another 140 soldiers were wounded. The actual number of Indians engaged or killed in the battle is not known, but included warriors from the Shawnee, Delaware, Mingo, Wyandotte and Cayuga tribes, lead by their respective chiefs and by Cornstalk, Sachem of the Shawnees and King of the North Confederacy. The remaining Indians fled into Ohio with Lewis' men in pursuit. Now on the defensive, the Indians later agreed to a peace treaty, ending what had become known as Lord Dunmore's War (John Murray, fourth Earl of Dunmore, was Governor of Virginia at the time). General Lewis died in 1781 from a fever.
**
--- During the American Revolution the British tried to build a coalition of Indians to fight against the colonists. Chief Cornstalk alone refused to join, although many members of his tribe opposed him. Chief Cornstalk, however, had come to believe that his people's survival depended on their friendly relations with the Virginians. In the spring of 1777, he visited the garrison at Point Pleasant with a small contingent of Indians, and he informed the colonials of the coalition that was forming. While the Virginians waited for reinforcements, the Indians were held as hostages. Following the killing of a white man outside the fort by other Indians, Chief Cornstalk and his men (including his son, Elinipsico) were murdered by the soldiers. Chief Cornstalk was admired, even by his enemies, as a fine orator and courageous warrior.
CORNSTALK MURDER From the VIRGINIA GAZETTE 3 April 1778 By HIS Excellency PATRICK HENRY Governor, or Chief Magistrate of the Commonwealth of VIRGINIA **
A PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS a most barbarous murder was on the tenth day of November last committed by a number of persons belonging to a detachment of the militia of this state an Indian chief called CORNSTALK, his son, and two other Indians at Fort Randolph on the Ohio, although the said Indians had been convicted of no hostile act or purpose, and were at that time under the pl ghted (sic) protection of the garrison of the place, whereby a deep wound has been given to the honor and faith of this country, the laws of the state have been most flagrantly violated, and the vengeance of a cruel enemy provoked on the innocent inhabitants of the western frontiers, as well as a dangerous example given to licentious and bloodthirsty men wantonly to involve their country in the horrours of a savage war; and whereas it appears from sundry depositions transmitted to me that James Hall of the county of Rockbridqe, and Malcolm McCown of Augusta, Adam Barnes of Greenbrier, William Roane of Rockbridge and Hugh Galbreath of Rockbridge were deeply concerned in promoting and perpetrating the said outrage, I do by and with the advice of the Council of State issue this my proclamation strictly requiring the citizens of this commonwealth, more especially all officers civil and military, to use the most vigorous exertions to bring these seperate offenders to the punishment due their guilt. And as an encouragement thereto, as well as a proof of the public abhorrence of such detestable crimes, I do offer to such person or persons as shall secure any of the offenders so that they be brought to justice the following rewards that is for
James Hall 200 dollars, for
Malcolm McCown 150 dollars, for
Adam Barnes,
William Roane and
Hugh Galbreath 100 dollars each.
Given under my hand at the Council Chamber in the city of Williamsburg this 27th day of March in the second year of the commonwealth, Annogue Dom 1778

Peter Cornstalk was a man of honor and a firm friend of the white man. It is said that he visited the trading posts in this area regularly, and was know to many of the pioneers in Shelby County, Ohio.
--- 4th son of Ounaconoa Moytoy & Cornstalk,
--- Peter Cornstalk and his Brother John were half Chickamauga Cherokee through their mother. Peter later became the Principal Chief of the Cherokees living at the mouth of Spring Creek where my 3rd Great Grandfather Isaac Weaver held the first legal land grant as recognized later by President Franklin Pierce in that exact location. *--*
--- Chief Peter Cornstalk's village of Snakefish (Eel River) tribe of Miami Indians was located three miles from here along Cornstalk Creek. Wigwams and Indian burial ground were near the little Harshbarger family cemetery. The Indians lived at peace with settlers moving here in the 1800s. --- Location: US 231 & CR 1150 S adjacent to Parkersburg Spring, Parkersburg. **
--- NOTE-- Mary Adams daughter of Robert Adams and Elizabeth Ferguson did in fact marry someone named Peter Cornstalk at the Wolf House in Norfork, AR in 1826. The ceremony is well documented. But that is as far as the information goes. It has been rumored that Peter Cornstalk and his brother John had come to the AR territory and then after that 1830 decree they changed their names from Cornstalk to Avey to avoid being forced to leave the territory.
Data has it that their mother was a Mary Frances Avey and that they took her maiden name as their surname.. NO record is found of descendants but an article published in the Baxter County Bulletin gave an account of Peter's death. It seems his home was attack because of his Indian heritage. He hid in the chimney but gun shots were fired up the chimney and when the raiders left, the mortally wounded Cornstalk climbed down and died in a nearby cornfield. The article stated that this was handed down by his descendants **

--- about 6' tall & attractive
KATHERINE: Because of her great height, the white settlers called her the Grenadier Squaw. Some missionaries among the Indian tribes named her Katherine. She was often called Kate. She had a small tribe of Indians over whom she ruled. Her Town was near the present city of Circleville, Ohio. Cornstalk's Town was about one-half mile north of that place.
-- This courageous Indian woman became acquainted with the early white settlers and developed an admiration for them. Without being a traitor to her own people she frequently gave the whites information that was very beneficial to them.
-- Soon after Cornstalk, her brother, was murdered by infuriated soldiers at Fort Randolph (now Point Pleasant) she abandoned her people and moved to that place where she asked permission to live. She brought nearly fifty head of cattle, some horses, and other property. This gesture indicated her good faith and the Virginians accepted her as one of them.
-- The Grenadier Squaw acted as an interpreter for the white people. In May, 1778, following the cruel murder of Cornstalk, a force of two hundred Indians from west of the Ohio River banded together and came to Fort Randolph. They demanded that Captain William McKee surrender the fort. He asked them to give him until the next morning to consider their demand. All through the night the men were busily employed in bringing water from the river.
-- The next morning Captain McKee sent his answer by the Grenadier Squaw. It was that the fort would not surrender. The Indians immediately attacked the fort and besieged it for one week. Then they rounded up all the cattle and horses they could find and started up the Kanawha Valley. The Grenadier Squaw learned of their purpose to go into the Greenbrier settlements, about where Lewisburg now stands. These settlements had been destroyed by Cornstalk and sixty braves in 1763 when they massacred some fifty white people. By this time new settlers had come into that section and established homes.
-- Captain McKee sent two scouts to follow the Indians, but they returned with the intelligence that the redskins had broken up into small groups. He then asked for volunteers "to risk their lives to save the people of Greenbrier."
-- John Pryor and Phillip Hammond stepped forward and offered their services. The Grenadier Squaw dressed them like Indians and painted their faces. By traveling by day and night, these men were able to get to the Greenbrier settlements before the Indians arrived.
-- The people in the settlements hurried to Donnally's Fort, which was located near the present site of Lewisburg. When the Indians arrived, they discovered that the fort was too well defended for them to caputre it. They destroyed much property, and returned to their homes on the west side of the Ohio River.
-- Some time after this attack, the Grenadier Squaw moved to Pennsylvania to a place near what is now Pittsburgh. In 1785, she petitioned the Commissioner of Indian Affairs for a grant of land on the Scioto River, her former home and where her mother was buried. It seems that this petition, which was referred to Congress, was never acted upon.
-- In 1786 Colonel Benjamin Logan led a raid on the Indian villages on Mad River. The Grenadier Squaw was one of the Indians captured at that time.

--- Wikipdeia
--- Moytoy I is also called Amatoya Moytoy, Moytoy of Chota, and Moytoy the Elder. He held a prominent position among the Cherokee, and held the hereditary title Ama Matai (From the French matai and Cherokee ama--water), which meant "Water Conjurer". He ruled the town of Chota sometime between the beginning of the eighteenth century and 1730.
- He was born around 1640, and probably died in 1730. His father was a European, Thomas Pasmere Carpenter, who was descended from the noble Anglo-Norman family of Vicomte Guillaume de Melun le Carpentier. Thus, Moytoy's European lineage can be traced to the Frankish Duke Ansegisel of Metz Meroving, Peppin II, and Charles Martel. This ancestry also makes the Cherokee Moytoys cousins to the Carpenter Earl of Tyrconnell, and thus related to the current British royal family.
In 1680, he married Quatsie of Tellico. Many of their descendants went on to become prominent leaders, founding a family that effectively ruled the Cherokee for a century.
One of their sons became Moytoy II (Pigeon of Tellico), the Principal Chief and Emperor of the Cherokee. Another son was
Kanagatucko (also Old Hop & Standing Turkey), who briefly succeeded his brother as Principal Chief and Emperor from 1760-1761. Through his eldest daughter,
Nancy Moytoy, Amatoya Moytoy was the grandfather of Attacullaculla

Wikipedia Wikipedia
Moytoy Pigeon of Tellico, Principal Chief and Emperor of the Cherokee ("Trader Tom" Carpenter) was the leading Chief of the Cherokee tribe from April 3, 1730 to 1760. He was also created "Emperor of the Cherokees" by the unofficial British envoy Sir Alexander Cuming in 1730, and had previously been Chief of Great Tellico. He is known as Moytoy II, or Moytoy the Younger, as he succeeded his father, Moytoy I, or Amatoya Moytoy of Chota.
Moytoy II was originally named Pigeon of Tellico (English translation), and was born around 1687 in that town. His father, Moytoy I, was the town chief of Chota ca. 1700-1730. His mother, Quatsy, was from Tellico, so this was his home (Cherokee society is matrilineal and matrilocal, and inheritance for males is avuncular).
Moytoy was crowned with the "Crown of Tannassy," as described by Cuming (the name probably has origins with the traditional capital of Tanasi, near Chota). It is said to have been a traditional Cherokee hide cap covered in feathers and several hanging animal tails. The crown was later taken to England.
Some sources refer to Moytoy II's wife as a woman named Go-sa-du-isga, and title her the "Queen of the Cherokee" (in fact there are no traditional consort titles, so this was a European distinction).
They had many children who went on to become prominent Cherokee leaders, among them
Oconostota (Stalking Turkey), who succeeded his cousin Attacullaculla as Principal Chief in 1775 or 1777. Moytoy's daughter,
Waw-Li, married the Scottish immigrant John Joseph Vann, making the Cherokee town chief, James Vann, Moytoy's grandson. Another son,
Amo-Scossite, took the title "Emperor of the Cherokees" after his uncle Old Hop's death. However, his adoption of the European title alone held no political authority, and Attacullaculla was the de facto ruler. The imperial title fell out of use after 1761.
Since 1968, Donald Joe Robinson, a Cherokee man from Dallas, Texas, has styled himself "Oukah" (Chief or King) and "Emperor of the Tsalagi" (Cherokee). Although he has received some attention, any legitimate link between his assumed title and Moytoy's lineage has yet to be proven. His claims are largely regarded as false.

The Moytoy Carpenter family was in full control of their burgeoning Chickamauga Nation.
--- In 1710 Governor Gibbes of South Carolina made arrangements enabling Trader Tom Carpenter to ship furs from the eastern region of his trading area from Charleston to England. Previously East India Trading Company ships owned by the Carpenter family of Plymouth and Devonshire England had picked up furs from river ports in Alabama and Georgia, but the Spanish in Florida were complaining about the practice. Trader Tom agreed and they departed Charleston aboard East India Trading ship, "Hester" June 4, 1710 and arrived at the family estates in Devonshire, England July 2, 1710. After a three-month stay, the Moytoy's departed on the East India Trading Company ship ... Nathaniel ... for the return trip to Charleston. It was laden with thirty tonnes of trade goods bound for the Cherokee Nation. The Nathaniel departed Plymouth England October 28, 1710, and arrived at Charleston December 2, 1710. The trade goods were offloaded at Charleston, and stored there until the spring of 1711.

John immigrated in 1682 to SC. He came to the Overhill towns in 1699 from the Caribbean and Carolina coast. He was called a Mustee (mixed breed). (Brent Cox, Heart of the 1699). John Beamer is claimed by Narcissa Owen as the father of Oconostota, who was one of the young warriors to go to England in 1730 (The Memoirs of Narcissa Owen, 1831-1907, 1907). The origin of the name is “from Bohemia.” The name Beamer goes back to one of the first French Huguenot traders among the Cherokee****
Grandson Thomas Beamer, born about 1756, half breed son of James Beamer of Estatoe, was an English/Cherokee interpreter for the Lower Towns.

• In 1828 and 1829, during the administration of John Jolly, the Arkansas Cherokees removed to Indian Territory. On their arrival they reestablished their government, locating their capital at Tahlontiskee on Deep Creek. John Jolly continued as principal chief until his death in 1838. In December of that year John Looney took office as principal chief and was to have served untill October 1839; but with the arrival of the Eastern Cherokees in Indian Territory, however, the Old Settler and Arkansas Cherokees decided to strengthen their organization. And a new election was held on April 22, 1839, at which time John Brown became principal chief, with John Looney and John Rogers as second and third chiefs. John Brown served for only a few months in the spring of 1839, for the failure of Chiefs Brown and Rogers to yield to a compromise with the Ross party led the Old Settlers to call a convention and depose Brown and Rogers, electing in their stead John Looney principal chief.

--- It was recorded that his wife, was present at the Treaty of Sycamore Shoals in March 1775. He was one of the young warriors to go to England in 1730, became the Great Warrior about 1740, and later became the Principal Headman of the Cherokee Nation.

---Nothing is known of Oconostota's early life. Oconostota became Great Warrior of Chota, war leader of the Overhills towns.(Journal of Cherokee Studies.)
-- Before Tellico Lake flooded Chota and Tanasi in 1979, University of Tennessee archaeologists conducted extensive excavations, documenting much in the area of the eighteenth-century town sites. Among the more noteworthy discoveries were the remains of the great Chota council house and its hearth, which was the capital city of the Chickamaugans, along with the grave of the great warrior and principal chief Oconostota, who died in 1783. They knew who it was because his eyeglasses were with him (a rarity among Indians, he wore eyeglasses in his late years), and he still lay in the canoe in which he was known to have been buried.
Artifacts unearthed during excavations 1967 -1983 as part of the Tellico Archaeological Project
Visitors to Tanasi will find a stone memorial erected by the Tennessee Historical Commission that commemorated the town as the source of the state name. The pavement in front of the marker is an octagonal slab representing a townhouse; in the center of the slab is a granite marker engrave with a seven-pointed star (representing the seven clans of the Cherokee) and a depiction of the eternal flame. The lakeside memorial, which overlooks the inundated town site, is located approximately one hundred feet east of Bacon Ferry Road; a small parking lot is provided. He is buried at Chota Memorial near Vonore, TN. **

Almost a mile north of the Tanasi monument is the parking area for the Chota memorial. A gated gravel road leads approximately 5550 yards south from the parking area to the Chota memorial, a full-scale representation of the townhouse erected by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, which owns the memorial area. The town house monument is in the location of the original structure, on a raised surface built above the level of Tellico Lake.
-- 1738, Attakullakulla was listed as a peace chief of the Cherokees, with Oconostota being the principal war chief. Throughout their long lives, Attakullakulla and Oconostota worked quite effectively in tandem. In fact, Attakullakulla was married to Oconostota's daughter.
**
--In 1741, the same year of Caulunna's death ; Caulunna was a significant Cherokee leader in the era of Moytoy, and was Oconostota's uncle, and Quatsis' brother. It has been speculated by some that Caulunna and Moytoy were the same person- In fact, many secondary sources state that Oconostota and Attakullakulla were brothers. Attakullakulla's mother was the sister of Moytoy, and Old Hop was their brother, If Moytoy was Caulunna, he would have been both Oconostota and Attakullakulla's older uncle. He would have been responsible for the upbringing of both through manhood, This may ex-plain why some historians conclude that Oconostota and Attakullakulla were relatives. Yet, neither family ever mentioned being kin to one another. Also, Old Hop stated that Attakullakulla was his nephew. In the same statement, Old Hop mentions Oconostota without calling him his relative. There are no documented records to prove that Caulunna and Moytoy were the same person Moytoy was a Cherokee man. See: Caulunna and Old Hop. **
note---Oconostota, a chief of the Cherokee, was one of the more tragic figures of the American Revolution. He may have been the only Indian chief ever to lead his men to victory over an army of British regulars. As a young warrior, he had fought against the Choctaw in the 1750s. By the time of the Revolution Oconostota was a great chief in his tribe, and according to Cherokee agent Alexander Cameron, the formidable warrior commanded "not only a vast sway with his own people, but with other tribes." In 1773 he even became a member of the Saint Andrew's Club of Charleston. As the Anglo-American crisis escalated, Oconostota struggled to avoid open warfare with the Americans. Younger chiefs of the tribe, however, angered at continued pressure on their lands, urged warfare, and the American Revolution gave them an opportunity.
While the great chief continually applied to Virginia and Continental officials to negotiate, his people, led by the younger chiefs, were defeated.

--- "Things were so bad in the Overhill settlement that in the fall of 1782 Joseph Martin took Nancy Ward and Oconostota back to Long Island [of Holston] to spend the winter. Scarcity of food and respect for Nancy, as well as friendhip for the Old Chief who was now almost blind, were sufficient reasons. Draper's Manuscript records this quote from William Martin, son of Joseph: 'I am of the opinion that Oconostota was one of the noblest and best of humankind. He had a powerful frame, and in his prime must have weighed more than two hundred pounds, with a head of enormous size. He was, when I saw him, very lean, stooped, and emaciated.'"
- "These two Cherokee greats, Nancy Ward and Oconostota, spent the winter of 1782-1783 in Joseph Martin's Long Island [of Holston] home, where Nancy's daughter, Betsy, was able to care for their needs. With the coming of spring, Oconostota asked Martin to take him home. The Old Chief must have felt that his end was near, and he wanted to spend his last days at Chota. Martin realized that the ailing Chief would be unable to make th trip on horseback, so he arranged to take the party down river by boat. Sometime later, when the veteran Chief breathed his last breath, Martin buried the Old Chief with Christian rites, using a dugout canoe for a coffin."

--- Great Warrior, Shawnee Warrior, Cheesquatalone, Cheeskiowee, Cuareto, Raven of Chota, Raven, Sour Hominy, Sour Mush ... Little Raven ... John Greenwood, and a host of other names. This man provides great confusion among Native American genealogists. Nevertheless, John Greenwood was a significant influence in the affairs of his nation and people although recognition of power was not his forte. He did what was required, and used sound judgment to further the people his grandfathers adopted and loved.

(3) Cornelius Doughtery 1740, Chota, City Of Refuge, Cherokee Nation b 1720 VA d 1779, Seneca Old Town on the Keowee, Chota, City Of Refuge, Cherokee Nation son of Philip Doughtery and Guledisgonihi [Cherokee]
---(he is listed as Longhunter and Melungeon **
--- Two Crows aka Cornelius Doghearty -- Cornelius :
son of an expatriate Scots-Irish who’s run off from indentured servitude to become a trader and packhorseman in the backcountry of colonial South Carolina & have dealings with the Creek and Cherokee nations. The real Cornelius Dougharty (the way he spelled it) was perhaps the earliest English trader to set up shop in the Overhill Settlements of the Cherokee Nation. Various sources have him crossing the Unaka Ridge and going down the Unicoi Turnpike as early as 1710, this is unlikely since other records put his death at around 1790 and if both dates are true he would have been roughly 100 to 110 years old. Cherokee and Shawnee genealogists put his birthdate at 1720. He is said to have married Ahneewakee, the adopted Shawnee daughter of Moytoy about 1739. His wife's Shawnee heritage makes Cornelius an ancestor for both tribes. We do know for certain that Cornelius lived at Hiwassee Old Town (located about where US Highway 411 crosses the Hiwassee River in southeast Tennessee) and therefore must have experienced and survived the smallpox epidemic of 1739 that caused the area to remain otherwise uninhabited for many years thereafter. Records from the Fort Loudoun period show him to have been a trader, wagoneer, and provisioner. He raised cattle, horses, and hogs.

--- Catherine belonged to the Paint Clan. Catherine was a member of the Candy's Creek Church. Rev. William Holland was the missionary there and wrote about several members of the church. He said that Catherine was one of the first to embrace the faith. She understood and spoke a little English. Her life was such as to adorn her profession. She and her daughter manufactured cloth for the supply of her family. She was a very respectable woman. The dates given when she and others went into the church was September 25, 1825, at age 42. She was known to be 1/2 Cherokee.
--- December 13, 1813, James Cunningham stole Anthony Foreman's slave girl as testified to by Jack Foreman and Catherine Foreman Bigby.
--- Rev. William Holland wrote to the Foreign Mission Board on October 19, 1825:
Mrs. Bigby is an interesting half breed and the sister of Mr. T. Foreman. She is about 40 years old. She has a large family of children, four of which were baptized with her. James, Jr., and Thomas were baptized by a "strolling Methodist" as infants. Her mother Nancy Fields was also a member of the Candy's Creek Mission. [Note: the reference here to Catherine's "Mother" Nancy Fields is believed to be her Sister-in-Law Susannah (Nannie, Nancy) Fields].

--- Richard Pearis was a trader from Virginia, and asked the Governor of Virgina for title to Long Island in 1754. He took Preachy to wife at Chota, decided to stay at Chota, where he married Preachy: Richard Pearis was a trouble maker
---Richard Pearis was the son of George and Sarah Pearis who came fromireland about 1725. It is uncertainif Richard was born in Ireland or in America. Richard was one of four children. Three sons George Jr, Robert and Richard and a daughter Christian. They lived near Winchester VA.
George sr died in 1752 and Richard and Robert sold everything includung a parcel of land known as Paris, VA. from there, Richard moved to Lynchburg and by the 1760s Richard was in South carolina.
---Somehow, Richard gained fame as a trader with the Cherokee people that occupied part of South carolina. He was apparently well respected by the Cherokee people and was a translator. Richard lived in the area of South carolina where there were no white settlers and few white men traveled through. He had a Cherokee wife and fathered several children by her. Later,around 1740 he married a European woman named Rhoda and had three more children; Richard Margaret (Elizabeth) and Sarah.
---During the French and Indian War and American Revolution era, Richard was a Loyalist. He was on Britains side in the Rev War because they had offered him a higher rank than the Americans did and he approved of the British plan to give much of South carolina to the Cherokee people after the War was over.
---At some point in 1776, Capt. Richard Pearis was jailed aloing with his Cherokee son George Pearis in Charleston, SC. during the Rev War. He and his son were released later. Capt. Richard Pearis had lots of land in SC including the land where Paris State Park is located. I'm also told Paris Island SC was named for/ or by Richard Pearis.
---Well, the British lost as we know, and Capt Richard and his white wife Rhoda, and white son Richard Jr and dgt Margaret (Elizabeth) moved to British owned East Florida and then to Abaco, an Island in Barbados.His dgt Sarah had married George Teeter and moved to Garrard County Kentucky and so stayed in America.
His white wife Rhoda is sometiomes refered to as "reluctant" but no specifics as to why. Capt. Richard died in 1794 Barbados, as did his dgt margaret (Elizabeth) and her husband Gen. Cunningham. They are buried in Barbados and I know of one descendant who states she has a copy of his will and has seen thier graves in Barbados.
As for being 'penniless', I suppose the term is relative. Compared to what he once had, land in Florida, Nassua and barbados must be small change. (I should be so penniless) His wife Rhoda survived him, but I don't know what happened to her. His dgt Sarah (Pearis) Teeter died in 1794 in Kentucky.
---There is a lot of conflicting information out there..some lists Rhoda as Cherokee and Capt Richard had many descendants. His Cherokee son George fathered more than 10-15 children by several different women from what I can gather.
---As for the different spellings of the name, it seems that Pearis is the original form. I was told that the non-Cherokee descendants changed the spelling to Parris to distinguish them from the Cherokee Pearis'. I have seen every spelling from parrish to Phares to Paris which adds to the confusion.
---And, those of us with Teeter lineage knoe that the same family has used Dieter, Teter, Teeter, Teater.

Their daughter, Jennie Lowrey was Eliza Benge's mother and Robert Benge was her father. Robert Benge's parents were Obediah Benge and Sarah Fields. Lt. Col.

NOTE: Eliza Benge filed for his pension with the government. She died before she could receive any money. She told them of several battles between Stand Watie and Captain Seabolt's men. She also told her children of the stories she heard as a child about the Trail of Tears. She was only an infant herself but she remembered hearing how pregnant women were required to march right up until the minute of childbirth. Not even a pause would be tolerated. In the event that the wagon's that accompanied the immigrants were already full of ailing women and children, a condition that was quite frequent, hapless women were left to die at the roadside and the brains of the infants dashed out against a convenient tree. Cattle, because of their commercial value, would have been given gentler and more humane consideration.**

She was of the Wolf Clan. The Cherokee word for wolf = Quatsy; hence, the confusion of her name. She was from Tenase, but moved with her family what was to become the Overhills, Tenase, Great Tellico. Due to eliminate confusion, we use the name Quatsy Nancy to allay confusion.

• He married Susan in 1736 in tellico Plains, TN.
• Christian Gottlieb Priber, immigrated abt 1735 from Zittau, Germany, went quickly to live with the Cherokee which he saw as an idyllic lifestyle. Leaving a wife and children in Germany who he meant to send for, he instead married a daughter of the great Cherokee Chief Moytoy at Tellico (now in SC). their daughter Creat Priber married Chief Doublehead, in the area now Stearns, KY. Christian Gottlieb Priber and his Moytoy wife had four daughters, names of the other three are not known. **

About 1736 the Jesuit 'Black Robe' Christian Gottlieb Priber appeared among the Chickamaugans. His primary mission was to establish a 'utopian government' but was converted to the Cherokee way of life taking Creat, daughter of Emperor Moytoy, as wife. Their daughter was the first wife of Chief Doublehead.
• February 27, 1736 the S.C. Council Journal reports Priber's petition for a land grant in Amelia township, stating that he had "a family of six persons in the province and also a wife, four children and one servant in Saxony." The Council granted him land, but Priber went directly into Cherokee country.

It is a very unusual nature; he is a small ugly man, but he speaks nearly all languages flowing, particularly English, Dutch, French, Latin and indianisch; he speaks very blasphemisch against all religions, but particularly against the Protestant; it was in the process justifying a city at the foot of the mountains under the Cherokee where all criminals, debtor and slaves before the justice or her Mr. Zuflucht should find.

--- The McLemore Family Connection with Redbird and Tsisquaya
In 1764 after his wife Susanna Christian Priber died giving birth to son number five, Redbird removed his children from Taluegue village then located in the southeastern part of Kentucky, and returned with them to the Great Tellico. Redbird wanted his children to fully understand the White man ways in order to enable a better chance for their survival. His oldest son, Aaron (Tsisquaya), was sixteen, but James was only five. Robert McLemore suggested he and Redbird take the younger children to some of Robert’s relatives, who he was sure would raise them properly, and allow Redbird the right to visit as often as he wanted. They first went to Bertie County, and Charles sent them on to his nephew John who was then living in Granville County. Once there John and his wife agreed to keep the three youngest children, John, Mary, and James. John believed his brother Burrell would care for Jesse and Mahala because some of his own children were already married.

--- NOTE: **
Sequoyah created a syllabary, not a dictionary. A syllabary includes sounds that have cultural significance. A dictionary is composed of a set of arbitrary abstract symbols. In Cherokee, BROCK is Qua(gi), also written as Qua-gi and Quagi. Like all Cherokee words, BROCK is made up of two culturally significant sounds from the syllabary - qua and gi. The Cherokee sound qua (pronounced as kwa) is used in reference to a bird. For example, Tsis-qua, means the Bird People and Ani-tsis-qua means People of the Bird Clan. Also, notice the syntax. Cherokee is the reverse of English. Ani-tsis-qua literally translates as Clan People Bird.
The Cherokee sound gi (pronounced as g) is used in reference to the color red. For example, blood, which is red, is gi-ga' and cherries, which are a red fruit, are gi-ta'-ya.
In Cherokee, BROCK is Qua(gi), which literally translates as Bird Red, or as we would say in English, Red Bird.
Totsu'hwa is the Cherokee word for Cardinal, the Red Bird, which is the shape-shifted spirit of the Daughter of the Sun, from the sacred stories of creation.
It is quite likely that the siblings Jesse BROCK, Mahala Susan BROCK, Mary "Polly" BROCK; and their father Aaron BROCK were not related to any of the Euroamerican Brocks. As noted by Annie Walker Burns, they were Indian. Their surname BROCK is more likely the English translation of the Cherokee word Qua(gi), which means Red Bird. This likelihood is not only supported by oral family histories, but by recent DNA studies and historical linguistics.
note: Kentucky Cherokee: People of the Cave by Kenneth Barnett Tankersley, Ph.D. ** Red Bird (Totsu'hwa) was a Chickamaugan. His village was known as Taluegue (a local variation of the eastern word Telliqua and western Tahlequah), located near the present town of Fogertown, Clay County, Kentucky, along the Warrior's Path, also known as the War Trail. The Warrior's Path ran up Goose Creek to the mouth of Otter Creek, up Otter Creek, and down Stinking Creek
---Dr. John J. Dickey Diary, Fleming County, Ky.-- Recorded in the 1870's and beyond. Reprinted in Kentucky Explorer, Volume 11, No.?, March, 1997, p.107. By permission. Clay County. ---RED BIRD---
The Indian chief for whom Red Bird Creek in Clay County was named was probably a Cherokee from Tennessee or North Carolina. Like others of his race, he was a great hunter and allured by the game in this remote region. He finally took up his residence on the creek that bears his name at the mouth of Jack's Creek in this county. He came to his death by the avarice of the "pale face." There lived with him a crippled Indian named Willie.* This man dressed the skins which Red Bird brought to their wigwam and looked after the culinary department of their house. Some hunters from North Carolina, greedy and unscrupulous, came to the wigwam and murdered Willie. They then secreted themselves and awaited the return of the brave chief who had long before buried his tomahawk and for years had been living in peace with the white man, and as he approached his crude castle the bullet of an assassin laid him in the dust. They threw his body into a hole of water nearaby which is still called "Willie's Hole," and from which John Gilbert and others took him and buried him. One tradition is that he was sitting on the bank of a creek fishing when he was shot and that he fell into the creek.
--* Will killed with Red Bird 1797 was Chief Will of Akoha who signed the Treaty of Hopewell November 28, 1785.

--- Aaron Brock migrated to Red Bird, Harlan Co., KY, when his son Jesse was granted land for his Revolutionary service. It is said that at first Aaron and his wife lived in a sycamore tree near what is now Red Bird, Kentucky, which is named for him. Sycamore trees were sacred to the Cherokee. It is where the Creator gave the Cherokee people fire. The stump of that sycamore tree is almost within eye sight of Ken Tankersley's family's home at Cranks, Harlan Co., Kentucky. Jesse Brock was the first settler at Wallins Creek in what was then Knox Co. and is now Harlan.

**
---John Benge- bwas previously married to Elizabeth Lewis, daughter of William Terrell Lewis and Sarah Martin, a prominent family originally from Virginia. Elizabeth's sister, Susannah Lewis married John's brother, Thomas Benge. John and Elizabeth had several children at their home in western North Carolina. These were William Lewis, Sarah, and Obadiah Martin. Apparently, John was also living with Wurteh at his home with the Cherokee (probably Toquo) and had several children born there. These were Robert, Utana "the Tail," Lucy, and Tashliske. After Elizabeth and the Lewis family found out about John's Cherokee family, their marriage was dissolved and Elizabeth latter remarried John Fielder and had other children. Wurteh also had a child from a man whose last name was Gist or Guess and their child became known to history as Sequoyah. Robert and Sequoyah were half brothers. **
--Wurteh: cherokee sister of Chief Doublehead, Onitositah, and Pumpkin Head; Nathaniel was son of Christiopher Gist, a Pennsylvania Indian trader married a Shawnee [p. 231 of INDIAN BLOOD, by Richard Pangburn]) AKA George Gist and Sallie, a Cherokee
Note:--Gist allowed to settle on the Great Island (across from Fort Henry) was married, in Cherokee terms, to Tassel's sister, Wurtuh, Mother of Sequoyah.
Note:-- Notes for Nathaniel Gist: Blood: Non-Cherokee; Myths of the Cherokee, James Mooney, pg 108; ....by a KY family it is claimed......Sequoya's father was Nathaniel Gist, son of the scout who accompanied George Washington on his memorable excursion to the Ohio. As the story goes, Nathaniel Gist was captured by the Cherokee at Braddock's defeat (1755) and remained a prisoner with them for six years, during which time he became the father of Sequoyah. On his return to civilization, he married a white woman in VA, by whom he had other children, and afterward moved back to KY, where Sequoyah, then a Baptist preacher, frequently visited them and was always recognized by the family as his son. Old Frontiers, by John P. Brown, 1938, Southern Publishers, Kingsport, TN, pg 158; Nathaniel Gist first appeared among the Cherokees as a messenger of Governor Dinwiddie in 1755. Following the French and Indian War he formed a trading partnership with Richard Pearis and lived in the Cherokee country for several years. During that time he took as his Indian wife, Wurteh, sister of Chief Old Tassel, and became the father of Sequoyah.

(2) Utiyu . -
Sequoyah (Sikwo-yi) is Cherokee for "pigs foot". (This is probably where he got his name as he was born with a handicap. | As a young man, Sequoyah was injured in a hunting accident and became partially lame.--confilicing info on this info is found]

He became an excellent craftsman both in painting and as a silversmith. He developed the Cherokee Alphabet. In 1824 he was given a medal of honor and a letter of recognition for his work on the alphabet. Soon there was a printing press made, and with Elisa Boudinot as the Editor of a Cherokee newspaper, The Phoenix. This paper was printed in both English and Cherokee. They even printed the Holy Bible in both English and Cherokee. Because of his knowledge of the alphabet, Seqouyah became a delegate from Arkansas. He lived to be 73 years old. Sequoyahs lineage is deep rooted in the Chickamaugans. ** View "The Sequoyah Birthplace Museum" Sequoyah Research Center **

--- Cornblossom -- LEGEND .... Sad when our history is filled with fictious areas have to surface to. Historical documents are proving to be quiet helpful. LOL
---According to the historian from Wayne County, there was no Cornblossom, or Tuckahoe, and no Yahoo Falls Massacre. According to Cherokee history written by the Cherokee themselves, there was no Cornblossom, no Tuckahoe, and no Yahoo Falls Massacre. There is no historical documentation in any newspaper of the era, no government document, and there is no Cherokee record of any of this.
--- There seem to be three books at the origin of these tales -- one by Robert Collins
** A History of the Daniel Boone National Forest by Robert F. Collins, 1975 , one by Thomas Troxell entitled "Legion of the Lost Mine", and "Legend of the Che Nee People". None of the 3 provide primary source documentation for the events they portray. The books note they are fictious and folklore .

--- Info from "Thomas Crossland"
My great grandfather was John Crossland. He lived on Sautee Creek, Alabama, and in 1818, he signed the intent to move with his neighbors, to the Arkansas Territory. The Indian agents name was RETURN MEIGS. John Crossland was a white man, who had married an Indian woman, with the first name of NANCY!!! One of his neighbors was named WALTER SCOTT. Walter Scott married a Full Blood Cherokee Woman whose name was Go-Sa-Du-IS-Ga. Go-Sa-Du-Is-Ga was born about 1750 and she married Walter Scott before 1769. I don't know when Walter was born, but he died(according to some findings) in 1796 in South Carolina.
--- John Crossland, William Campbell and Walter Scott were neighbors, on Sautee Creek, not far from CREEKPATH, Alabama. They all signed up to emigrate to Arkansas, and did emigrate to Arkansas, settling on Mulberry Creek and the Arkansas River. Mulberry is about 20 miles from Fort Smith and/or Van Buren.
---John Crossland was appointed administrator of Walter Scott's estate in Crawford County, Arkansas, about 1826. My guess or supposition is that John married Nancy, Walter's daughter, and that Walter was his father-in-law. BUT, I can't prove it yet.
