Bea, I will jump in here and give you this: http://www.echovalleycreations.com/cherres.htm There are quite a few web sites that give you all kinds of data about the Eastern Band of Cherokees. (The North Carolina tribes that hid in the hills during the "Trail of Tears" and still live as a federally recognized tribe, in the Great Smokey Mountains and Cherokee Co. NC. Some of the most beautiful country in the U.S. I'm sure Jim can tell you more.
