Before they were moved west and became civilized the Chickasaw would raid the Choctaw and enslave them. the Seminole are related to the Creek, and when slaves would escape into the swamps of Florida would find refuge as equals in the Seminole nation.

Speaking of the Civil War, there are literally hundreds of sites telling about the Indian Territory during the time period.

Oklahoma was inhabited mainly by the tribes that had been removed to Oklahoma in the 1830s.
The Creeks were divided with some on the Union side and some on the Confederate side. The tribe had been doing pretty well up until the Civil War, but the war destroyed their prosperity. Many homes were destroyed and livestock killed. After the war the tribe was punished by the US and lost part of their land. I also thank our moderators for keeping our forum nice and peaceful, like Oklahoma. |
