    3. Hi List! Some may be confused about the reference to the Indian Territory. It is now part of Oklahoma, since 1907, I believe. A little history: http://www.infoplease.com/ce6/history/A0825124.html In the southeast US, the Indians were forced to leave to settle west of the Mississippi in what became known as the Trail of Tears. A sort of ethnic cleansing, I suppose. http://ngeorgia.com/history/nghisttt.html Olaf
