  • These Hills, This Trail: Cherokee Outdoor Historical Drama and The
    THESE HILLS, THIS TRAIL: CHEROKEE OUTDOOR HISTORICAL DRAMA AND THE POWER OF CHANGE/CHANGE OF POWER by CHARLES ADRON FARRIS III (Under the Direction of Marla Carlson and Jace Weaver) ABSTRACT This dissertation compares the historical development of the Cherokee Historical Association’s (CHA) Unto These Hills (1950) in Cherokee, North Carolina, and the Cherokee Heritage Center’s (CHC) The Trail of Tears (1968) in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Unto These Hills and The Trail of Tears were originally commissioned to commemorate the survivability of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) and the Cherokee Nation (CN) in light of nineteenth- century Euramerican acts of deracination and transculturation. Kermit Hunter, a white southern American playwright, wrote both dramas to attract tourists to the locations of two of America’s greatest events. Hunter’s scripts are littered, however, with misleading historical narratives that tend to indulge Euramerican jingoistic sympathies rather than commemorate the Cherokees’ survivability. It wasn’t until 2006/1995 that the CHA in North Carolina and the CHC in Oklahoma proactively shelved Hunter’s dramas, replacing them with historically “accurate” and culturally sensitive versions. Since the initial shelving of Hunter’s scripts, Unto These Hills and The Trail of Tears have undergone substantial changes, almost on a yearly basis. Artists have worked to correct the romanticized notions of Cherokee-Euramerican history in the dramas, replacing problematic information with more accurate and culturally specific material. Such modification has been and continues to be a tricky endeavor: the process of improvement has triggered mixed reviews from touristic audiences and from within Cherokee communities themselves.

  • History Treadway and Buffington Family
    Treadway and Buffington Family INTRODUCTION The material on pages one through thirteen of this collection of records was furnished by Mr. John Frank Treadaway of Madison. Georgia, who died in 1950, because of a breakdown in health. Mr. Treadaway was forced to discontinue his genealogical research which, as will be observed, he confined to his forebear, the Revolutionary Soldier. Daniel Treadaway, of South Carolina, from whom most of the Treadaways in the South descend. Knowing that Mr. Treadaway was desirous of sharing his records. I am including them along with my own and those of others. After reading Mr. Francis Marion Treadaway's brief history (beginning on page 5) of the Daniel Treadaway family, one cannot help being impressed with his apparent determination to give only the facts, and if in doubt he would say "if I have been correctly informed", etc. Therefore. I fully accept his statement as being true that Richard Treadaway, of Orangeburg District. S. C.,(nor Barnwell County), father of Daniel, the Rev. Sol., did immigrate, with his family from New Jersey to South Carolina although as yet no proof of this has been established. In view of the above. I decided it would be advisable to include in my collection the Treadway records as found in the N. J. Archives in conjunction with those furnished by Miss Helen Hall of Omaha. Nebraska, on her Henry Treadway of New Jersey. Also. Tread(a)way records from others are likewise included. Permission by these contributors to use such records is greatly appreciated. One can readily see that this work represents considerable research, and it is hoped this collection of both Treadaway and Buffington family records will prove helpful to many people interested in these families.
