Remember, folks, Stand Watie, the Cherokee general, was the last general of the confederacy to surrender. There are a couple of places in and around Oklahoma where they fought some major battles. Bogey Depot was a well known Cherokee holding as was most of the area around Tahlequah. Linda Garner Evans

If you mean Boggy Depot it was Choctaw. It was the Capital of the Choctaw Nation from 1858 till after the Civil War.
