Context and resources
Roots Before A Modern Status Date
The Tribe links its Northeast Alabama community to the lower Cherokee towns and cites documents from the 1700s and censuses from the 1800s. Its introduction dates formal state recognition to 1984. This is the Tribe's own account; the underlying historical records are not reproduced here. A modern status date is not the beginning of a people's history, and this community is not merged with other Cherokee governments.
