    1. Re: CherokeeGene-D Digest V05 #364
    2. The "wattle and daub" houses were very, very early. At the time of Removals, most Cherokees lived in the dog trot houses and log cabins that Jeri mentioned earlier. The more elite, like Rich Joe Vann, lived in more elaborate brick and wood structures. Several fine homes existed in the CWY Nation--thus the old song.... "All I want in the Cherokee Nation is a little bitty wife and a big plantation" specifically the Vann home.

    1. Dog trot house
    2. In regards to the following post: Hi Jerri: When you mentioned the "double log house", is that what I have always considered a "dog-trot" style log house/cabin? These houses were very common in Alabama and Mississippi; and yes, in Texas also. They are built with the basic 2 rooms (fireplace in each of these) with a large open space between them but the roof connects the rooms and "dog trot". This style house has a door leading into each room from the long front porch and then a door that opens onto the "dog trot" passageway between these two rooms. Some had "small side rooms" built onto the back of one or both rooms. I have described to you the home of President Lyndon Baines Johnson's grandparents at Johnson City, Texas. This happens to be the last one that I remember going to and was allowed to go inside the home. The hostess that maintained this old home also made bread over the open flame in the fireplace in the room that was used as the kitchen/dining room. That was one hot place on a summer afternoon! Bettye Another dog trot home..... Last time I was in the Chattanooga, TN area, we drove over across the border into Georgia. Seems like it was the 1st town we came to (Rossville??) and it had the former home of John Ross, Principal Chief displayed--which was a dog trot home like you described. As I understand, the home had been built by Ross's grandfather McDonald and Ross lived in it for a time after being dislodged by Georgia ruffians from his own home near Rome, Ga. Some of John Ross's furniture is displayed. Ross's home in Park Hill, Oklahoma is not on display because it was burned (after Ross was "arrested by the Yankees" or given a military escort out of the war ravaged Cherokee Nation --depending on the way you interpret history) by Confederate Cherokees. That's why the Murrel Home (home of his niece's husband, George Murrel) is on display today and not the Ross home.

    1. Mound dwellers
    2. Bettye Woodhull
    3. My husband was stationed at Warner Robbins AFB south of Macon, GA in 1952 and we visited every "tourist trap" in a north/south line in that state. I remember going to the old burial grounds for I believe the Chicamaugin Indians. They had a few grave mounds that had one side opened up with either glass or plexiglass to permit viewing of the remains -skeletons. We also entered the council house. I am not sure if this was a replica or if it was "the real thing". I just remember that it appeared to be a perfect circle dug in the ground and the "seats" were slight indentions in the earth and also where the heels "dug in" as they sat. I stand just over 5 feet and couldn't stand erect in the council house. A peace pipe was placed where the chief would have set during a pow-wow. Now, over 50 years later, we renewed our interest when we visited the cliff dwellers in and around the Santa Fe, NM area three years ago. This spring I got to go to Tahlequah and also to the 5 Civilized Tribes Museum in Muskogee, visiting Ft. Gibson along the way. Does any one have knowledge of Elizabeth Chapman who would be from a time period around 1760 in Tyron, NC. She was married to a George Wigginton and is supposed to be full blood Indian. Thanks. Bettye

    3. At the time of contact, the Cherokee were a settled, agricultural people living in approximately 200 fairly, large villages. The typical Cherokee town consisted of 30 to 60 houses and a large council house. Homes were usually wattle and daub, a circular framework interwoven with branches (like an upside-down basket) and plastered with mud. The entire structure was partially sunken into ground. In later periods, log cabins (one door with smokehole in the bark-covered roof) became the general rule. The large council houses were frequently located on mounds from the earlier Mississippian culture, although the Cherokee themselves did not build mounds during the historic period. Used for councils, general meetings, and religious ceremonies, the council houses were also the site of the sacred fire, which the Cherokee had kept burning from time immemorial.

(in 1817). The Farmersville, Furman area is some of the best Farm land in Alabama. By 1819 that was opened up and they show in 1830 census. The Choctaw indians were our allies against the Creeks and retained there land a long time. I don't remember the dates, but soon the Choctaw land was "opened up".
