    DRAFT NOTES ON THE SEMINOLE TRAIL (U.S . 29) Ill VIRGIBU Howard Newloa, Jr. October 28, 1976 According to McCary the indians that inhabited Virginia prior to English settlement were linguistically Algonquian, 'Iroquoian and Siouan- The general areas are indicated on his map attached as Figure 1.") Harrison in his extensive work on Old Prince William which extended as far west as Fauquier County likewise describes the indians as Algonquian and Iroquois. Specific tribes associated with Piedmont Virginia are largeiy Sapoai, Hanahuac, Tutelo, and Occaneechi. No mention is made in any county or state histories consulted of habitation or travel in the Virginia area by Seminoles. Despite this, U.S. 29 between Warrenton and the Horth Carolina line in 1928 was designated "TIie Seminole Trail". This designation was apprwed as Senate Bill 64 on February 16, 1928, which stated 1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia that that part of the Virginia State highway system, beginning at the Borth Carolina line and leading through Danville , Chatham, Alta Vista, Lynchburg, Amherst, Lovingston, Charlottesville, Ruckersville, Nadison and Culpeper to Warrenton, be, and is hereby designated and shall. be, here- after , known as the "Seminole Trail.". No supporting arguments were found in the Senate Journal or other public documents in the University of Virginia Library. Like- wise no documentation or descriptions were found in tourist oriented publications. Thus a question remains as to the origin and validity of the designation. Attempts to find supporting evidence in published sources on American Indians were likewise unsuccessful. The mo8t extensive -1- documentation of Southeastern indian trails was published by Myer in 1928!3) His map is attached as Figure 2.

  • 'O'er Mountains and Rivers': Community and Commerce
    MCCARTNEY, SARAH ELLEN, Ph.D. ‘O’er Mountains and Rivers’: Community and Commerce in the Greenbrier Valley in the Late Eighteenth Century. (2018) Directed by Dr. Greg O’Brien. 464 pp. In the eighteenth-century Greenbrier River Valley of present-day West Virginia, identity was based on a connection to “place” and the shared experiences of settlement, commerce, and warfare as settlers embraced an identity as Greenbrier residents, Virginians, and Americans. In this dissertation, I consider the Greenbrier Valley as an early American place participating in and experiencing events and practices that took place throughout the American colonies and the Atlantic World, while simultaneously becoming a discrete community and place where these experiences formed a unique Greenbrier identity. My project is the first study of the Greenbrier Valley to situate the region temporally within the revolutionary era and geographically within the Atlantic World. For many decades Greenbrier Valley communities were at the western edge of Virginia’s backcountry settlements in what was often an “ambiguous zone” of European control and settlers moved in and out of the region with the ebb and flow of frontier violence. Settlers arriving in the region came by way of the Shenandoah Valley where they traveled along the Great Wagon Road before crossing into the Greenbrier region through the mountain passes and rivers cutting across the Allegheny Mountains. Without a courthouse or church, which were the typical elements of community in eighteenth- century Virginia society, until after the American Revolution, Greenbrier settlers forged the bonds of their community through other avenues, including the shared hardships of the settlement experience.

    Myth and History: The John Ross House through Time The National Park Service and The John Ross House Association, Inc. 2007 JOHN ROSS HOUSE CCSP – BISHOP -- 2007 Myth and History: The John Ross House through Time by William J. Bishop Vice-President Trail of Tears Association, Georgia Chapter Under a joint partnership between The National Park Service and The John Ross House Association, Inc. Funded in part by The National Park Service Challenge Cost Share Program April 2007 2 JOHN ROSS HOUSE CCSP – BISHOP -- 2007 Acknowledgements This project was managed by the John Ross House Association, Inc. and its president, Larry Rose, whom I thank for allowing access to the John Ross House to conduct field research and for providing numerous helpful documents, such as the Ruskin correspondence and the scrapbooks of the John Ross House Association. Carey Tilley, the original historian on this project, laid the groundwork, defined the scope, and prepared the research questions. The University of West Florida’s Special Collections Department was especially helpful in providing access to the papers in the Panton, Leslie & Co. Collection. The state of Georgia’s GALILEO project was crucial in providing access and leads to numerous relevant historical documents. Likewise, Google and its associated websites, Google Books and Google Earth, are tremendous tools for the modern researcher and should be acknowledged. Dr. Georgina DeWeese of the University of West Georgia deserves special recognition for establishing a definitive date of construction for the John Ross House through dendrochronology. Dr. Sarah Hill provided information on Cantonment Wool and has been a staunch advocate and supporter in all my research-related endeavors, for which I am extremely grateful.

    DEPOPULATION AND CULTURE CHANGE IN THE EARLY HISTORIC PERIOD INTERIOR SOUTHEAST By MARVIN THOMAS SMITH A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1984 Copyright By Marvin Thomas Smith To Charlie, who taught me the art of anthropology, and to Dave, who taught me the craft of archaeology ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This study is the culmination of years of research interest in the early historic period. I have attempted to acknowledge all of the people who have given me considerable assistance in the past, but it is inevitable that someone will be left out by accident. I sincerely apologize to anyone who may have been overlooked. My interest in the early historic period grew out of fieldwork with David Hal ly at the Little Egypt site (1970-1972) and with Patrick Garrow and Hally at the King Site (1973-1974). I owe both of these gentlemen a great debt. Their support and friendship throughout the years has been greatly appreciated. This study would not have been possible without the availability of data from private collections. I am particularly indebted to Richard and Juanita Battles, Jon Peek, and Steve Hunter for allowing me to study their collections. Numerous individuals also allowed access to unpublished data. Frank Schnell supplied data from the Abercrombie site, Mary Elizabeth Good furnished information on the Tallassee site in Alabama, Paul Parmalee allowed access to the McClung Museum notes and collections from several sites in Tennessee, Mark Williams furnished valuable dis- cussions of the Scull Shoals and Joe Bell sites, Keith Little furnished information about the King Site sword, Caleb Curren supplied additional Alabama data, and Vernon J.

Steponaitis and Brett Riggs) This study focuses on issues of culture contact and the materialization of identity through an archaeological case study of a late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century Cherokee community located in eastern Tennessee. The English Contact period (ca. A.D. 1670-1740) was an extremely turbulent time for southeastern Indian groups marked by disease, warfare, and population movements. I examine how this chaotic period played out in the daily lives of Cherokee households. I use primary and secondary sources to develop an historical context for the English Contact period in the southeastern United States. I introduce a reliable way to identify English Contact period Cherokee occupations using pottery and glass trade bead data. I also consult artifact data in order to identify patterns associated with change and stability in the activities of daily life within Cherokee households. I find that daily life in Cherokee households changed dramatically as they coped with the shifting social, political, and economic currents of the English Contact period.
