I know a few people read the information I put up yesterday on the Indian Home Guard, This information was done in 1868 and 1869. The tribes involved were Creek, Cherokee and a few Seminole. They started the Dawes roll in 1889 about 20 years after these bounty and pension payments were made. I have taken many of the names and checked them on the Dawes Roll and do find listings. Now I am not saying these are the same people, but it would be worth additional research. I am working to the rest of this book as it was suggested by the Department of Justice felt Mr. J. W, Wright was guilty of embezzlement. There is more information on how he used the money provided by the government and whether he paid all the claims or not. Hopefully I will get this information up this week. Thanks Judy

For GMW or any other Weatherford researcher who might could answer my question: Do you have any knowledge of William Weatherford a.k.a. Red Eagle having a daughter named Sarah who married a Berry? As I mentioned to you in the past, I am not a Weatherford researcher per se, but have connections through parallel lines with the Creek families in mid and south Alabama. I do not have a Sarah listed as one of his children, but I ran across something the other day that indicated a daughter by that name. Since you sent me your family ancestry and knowing your theories, I was curious about this one. Thanks, Evelyn S. Leslie

This is a Creek list, I keep hoping people will stop off topic mailings on thier own, but that never happens. Yesterday I suggested you take the Cherokee talk to a Cherokee list. Now I am telling you either take it to a different list or stop discussing it here. When no one pays attention, you make me the evil step list mom!! Thanks Judy

Are the flowers white? My mom pointed these out and called them Indian Potatoes. They have one potato or bulb whichever you want to call it. They grow wild at my place and I usually have one or to beside the house and one beside the pump house.

From everything I've read-heard, the Wind Clan was more "prestigeous" and "enjoyed more privileges" than some clans. Just what that meant, I'm not entirely sure. But I would bet that it falls far from any state of "royalty". I'll have to admit though, that I am expressing personal opinions about 200 yrs. after the fact. Basing my opionions on much study and personal observations and reactions of current Native Americans. P.H.

I too, do not agree with all of Woodward's writings. However, he was a man of his times. Obviously, not "a man of letters". But, he did actually rub shoulders with the participants of the Creek Indian frontier. He knew personally, Red Eagle and many other characters and major players in the War of 1813 & 1814. You just have to pick & choose among the info that he displays. I choose to believe the hum-drum, day-to-day life style of writing, of a man who was actually there, to someone who wrote about the way it should have been. Pickett was invaluable for what he brought, along with A.B. Meeks. However, you have to wade through the romantic rhetoric which was the style of writing of the time. Paul Hornsby

Thank you very much, g

Thank you, g

Thanks, Paul, for being straight with me. I will say, though, that I don't agree with all of Woodward's info, either. Each of them, of course, is giving "one man's" opinion/experience. I'm just looking for the link beyond what has been a brick wall for a lot of years. At every single family reunion, my whole life, they talked about being related to Red Eagle. My Great Aunt worked on it for years, and when she died at age 96, I received much of her research. The last three years I've gotten closer and closer. Before he died, my Father got all the way to a courhouse in Tennessee that had burned down. I'll just keep on looking. I guess I'll ignore all the "Royal" titles that I see in the future. I honestly thought that possibly she was called a "you-know-what" because the Wind Clan was supposedly the uppermost clan. (You can tell me if that's true or not--ha.) Please excuse my ignorance. Your reasoning makes sense. I certainly wouldn't want to bring up unpleasant feelings from you or in you. I enjoy your honesty, your friendliness, your knowledge. Thank you, g

The use of King was a mistranslation by whites of the word micco or mikko. A mikko could do nothing with out the consent of his or her council. A mikko was more like the Chairman of the County Commission, than a true king. Richard T. **************It's only a deal if it's where you want to go. Find your travel deal here.

> So all that has been written about the names of the three > Sehoys--"Princess of the Wind Clan" is bull ? > What about Hopoithle Mico King of Talisi, Bird-Tail King of Cusseta, > Many of these "King" titles were direct quotes from Pickett's "History > of Alabama". This wasn't directed to me, but I had to butte in. This was pretty much "bull". Even though, I admit I am possibly descended from the Sehoys". When the first English people came over, they tried to communicate with the native population. The best way to deal with them was to establish who were the apparent leaders. The ones who seemed to be most in control, the town miccos, were designated "kings" by the English. The English were accustomed to being ruled by "kings", so it was a natural assumption that the Indians were ruled thusly. Through bribery, or flattery of the town miccos, or "kings" they could get the trade rights, land sessions, or what have you, much more easily. Now Pickett was about as close as we can come, to the source of Indian history, even though he did not participate directly, he had access to first person accounts of events. You also have to rembember that in his time, the style of writting was very romanticized. It made a much better story to write about young Indian princesses and royalty than just your plain old Indian woman. Actually, heritary royalty did not exist. The miccos were generally not more powerful than your average justice of the peace, or maybe mayor of present day. A far cry from a "king". These "kings" didn't mind being called that. After all, they didn't have any idea what a real "king" in England was all about. And if they got any special attention while being called that, well just great! Present-day Indian people have grown insulted by the whole idea of white people's "Indian Princess Grandmother". (Just a common 'ole Indian woman wasn't good enough to be decended from). At least, that's the preception that my Indian friends take away from this greatly misinterpreted idea of "royalty". Getting back to Pickett, everyone should read "Woodward's Reminiscences". General Woodward, who worked side by side with the Indians of the time, calls Pickett's hand on many of his fanticised points. Paul Hornsby
