    1. [GAUPSON-L] Hightower Researchers
    2. Crilley
    3. I'd like to work with any Hightower Researchers.... that might help us with a better understanding of: After J "Capt Billie" Hightower married V Andrews in 1857, they acquired this plot of land and established a plantation on Chemollie Reserve until 1870. I believe this is James William Flournoy Hightower...and his grandfather, James Hightower was one of the first settlers.....being in the area before Upson County was formed. The original Hightower land was on Tobler Creek.... perhaps this was next to the Chemollie Reserve?? Does anyone know about this? We're continuing to work on the Chemollie Indian Reserve, and hoped to pin point some deeds for the sale of the land to J.W. Hightower. If anyone is ever able to visit the Thomaston Archives in person, perhaps you could keep in mind our interest in this land, and see if there is anything on file there regarding it. Thanks.... Virginia Crilley

    1. [GAUPSON-L] Chemollie Reserve
    2. Crilley
    3. More information shared.... also spelled Cheneolly's Reserve "Only a small group of Creek chiefs attended the conference, and there is ample evidence that bribery and conspiracy occurred. In addition to McIntosh's reserves, one-square-mile tracts were reserved for Michey Barnard, James Barnard, Buckey Barnard, Cussena Barnard, and Efau Mathlaw--all influential Creeks. So is anyone tracing the Barnard families.....and descendants of Efau Mathlaw. That surname may have changed over the years. This is my first experience with Native American research in Upson county....so if you have anything at all to share...please do... Virginia Crilley

    1. [GAUPSON-L] Chemollie Reserve
    2. Reg Hackshaw
    3. It's nice to meet people who are interested in this history. Here is what has been found over the past yr. ===================================================== The 1821 treaty transferred the land between the Flint (or Thornateeskee R in Creek) and the Oculgee R from the Creek to the US government. Article II specified that a 1 sq mile plot in Upson County's 16th District would remain within the possession of the Barnard and Emathlau family clans. In 1829, the land was divided into 4 lots by the surveyor, LM Harris and sold to unknown buyers. After J "Capt Billie" Hightower married V Andrews in 1857, they acquired this plot of land and established a plantation there until 1870. For a map of the old Creek lands drawn in 1887 which includes Upson County, see: Gatschet A. Migration Legends of the Creek Indians. Kraus Reprint, NY. 1884/1969. Other information sources are from Nottingham and Hannah (1999), BC Smith's Map of Upson County and various Upson County Internet links. --

    3. I am interested in the origin of the name "Chemollie" which refers to the 1 sq mile of land set aside in Article 2 of the Indian Springs Treaty of 1821. This Reserve was on the E bank of the Flint R and W of the Womble Cr-Potato Cr junction. The Reserve was said to be the home of my Cherokee-Creek GGGM. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks. --
