    Being a Cherokee-American combat veteran, I relate to one of my heroes, Tecumseh. He's a visionary leader who had a brilliant idea of an alliance of the Tribes. If he had been successful, we might have been able to keep the colonists from crossing the Appalachian Mountains, where I was born right on the side of a mountain in fact, and our Tribe considers our home. With his death at The Battle of the Thames, we saw our opportunity to prevent people from taking our land. That's true.

    My Ancestors innermarried with the Native Sizemore clan from SE Kentucky. My bone structure, teeth and all look Cherokee even to my professor over 40 years ago who had pointed this out in class. That area had more than one tribe. Mostly Shawnee and Cherokee. I have 3-4 generations of ancestors who had marriages within the Natives or those of Native descent. Our history books were wrong! I think it was the English men who wrote their desired narratives to coverup the truth that Kentucky was Native land which got stolen. PERIOD!

    Hello Sir, I Visited your TH-cam channel and noticed it ranks lower than others. SEO seems to be lacking, though your content is fantastic . Wondering why your videos aren't attracting more views? One key factor is insufficient SEO (your videos' SEO score is 1/100%, that's why your video is not reaching out to the people and you do not have many subscribers, views, likes, watch time, and comments. I also noticed that your video thumbnail was good. If you'd like, I can assist you with improving it. I think your TH-cam channel will make your dream come true. I am waiting for your response.

    Three grandparents came from Harlan county. Going back to land given to vets of the of Revolutionary War. Mainly when Jesse Brock settled on Wallins Creek is how much of the family got there. Coal mining featured heavily in their lives. My mother grew up in a Ky coal camp. DNA showed mixed european, native american, and african. Ancestor lines, Brock, Thomas, Vaughn. Helton, Hazelwood, White and Queen. Found intermarriage of cousins, noted some had same maiden name as husband. As a child lived with my father's people in Claibourne county. So I tell folks am the product of 200 years of appalachian inbreeding. liked hearing about the history.

    Throughout the years the Indian tribes also learned how to develop" happy hunting grounds" planting species of plants that would attract certain animals . They also designated certain territories for species of trees of nuts and fruits . They absolutely worked in harmony with natural nature . Many of the Indian tribes believed in a Garden of Eden but perhaps on three different levels. As for the matching resembling megalithic architecture all over the Earth they had some of it here but it has partly been dismantled reincorporated into dams farming walls and even into the white settlers foundations . Driving in certain parts of Louisville, Indiana , and Circleville Ohio region we can still see megalithic architecture that was built before the Indians ,but has purposely been allowed to overgrow with trees and grass so it can't be detected easy , but we can plainly see it with Earth Google and lidar infrared radars

    By 1800 75% of the five tribes had Scottish, English or Irish surnames...you would have to travel way down the Ten a see river to find fullbloods who would make war on any settler in a flatboat. Very little is ever said of the fact trade of European goods and inventions, including horses with the natives resulted in the loss of land by treaty based on the paying of debts. The 1817 Cherokee losses in North Ga. were just that, to pay trade debts. Since these lands had been taken from the Muskogheans both by force and the fact these Mushkogeans lost wars with the new nation (1715 Yamasse for example) it was easy for the CHerokee to claim them. Arming the Cherokee led to the demise of the hated Westos but created a new class of slave hunters and slave stealers. I guess my point is that people like Moody miss that the superior culture prevailed at the expense of the native groups, but assimilation was a greater part of it than is noted in the literature. Even today its hard to find a fullblood who doesnt have a pickup truck and a television.
