Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees

The ominous subtitle, March to Removal, opens a new series of Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees that will take us up to 1838 and the tragic Trail of Tears. Volume 6 covers the years 1821-1824. Despite the loss of teacher Anna Rosina Gambold, the Moravians open a second mission station near Oochgeelogy Creek, thirty miles south of Springplace, their first station. Meanwhile, confident of its future, the Cherokee Nation sets about building a civilization of its own with a national capital, legislature, code of laws, and diplomatic negotiations with Washington. Now, all the Cherokee Nation needs is a syllabary to write its own language--a goal that will be achieved during the time period covered in volume 7 of Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees. Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees uses original diaries, minutes, reports, and correspondence in the Moravian Archives in North Carolina to provide a firsthand account of daily life among the Cherokee throughout the nineteenth century. Though written by missionaries from their perspective, these records provide much insight into Cherokee culture, society, customs, and personalities.

Volume 7 of Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees covers only three years, 1825-1827, but its pages are packed with discovery, struggle, sadness. The Cherokee Nation adopts a new means of communication, Sequoyah's syllabary--"invented by an Indian," our Br. Johann Renatus Schmidt writes, who "has no formal education." As long as the Cherokees cling to their land, which the state of Georgia is increasingly certain it owns, diplomatic pushing will grow to military shoving. Then 1827 fulfills volume 7's subtitle of Death in the Land and Mission with the passing of the old guard, first old principal chief Pathkiller, then his successor, our Br. Charles Renatus Hicks, and finally our dear missionary Br. John Gambold himself. That leaves the door open for new leadership to step in with volume 8, covering the years 1828-1830. Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees uses original diaries, minutes, reports, and correspondence in the Moravian Archives in North Carolina to provide a firsthand account of daily life among the Cherokees in the nineteenth century. Though written by missionaries from their perspective, these records give much insight into Cherokee culture, society, customs, and personalities.

Volume 10 of Records of the Moravians Among the Cherokees, 1834-1838, concludes the subtitle series March to Removal leading up to the Trail of Tears. The State of Georgia and the United States press forward toward their common goal, Georgia for white citizens only and America east of the Mississippi swept clean of Indians. After years of negotiations, treaties, enactments, and lawsuits, the Treaty of New Echota, signed late December 1835 by a handful of Cherokee head men, seals the fate of the Cherokee Nation east of the Mississippi. The Cherokees are now a homeless people in their ancient homeland. And the Moravian Church's missionaries, through mission diaries, reports, and letters, record the events as they hear, read, and eyewitness them, "heart freezing scenes of injustice, deception, oppression, & force, of which this Nation is the victim," missionary Henry Clauder writes April 1837. As forced removal increases, "forts" are built to hold up to 200 Indians each, even at the Moravians' beloved Springplace mission. Herded into the forts like cattle, many succumb to camp diseases. As the deadline for departure approaches, John Ross, president of the Cherokee Nation, wins a concession from the Army's Gen. Winfield Scott. Instead of soldiers, Cherokees will conduct the 13 "detachments" of about 1,000 Indians each. And the Moravian missionaries make their own hard decision. With winter coming on, they depart on the 800-mile journey to Arkansas before Br. George Hicks can start his detachment with a number of Moravian mission families.

Public Indians, Private Cherokees

Public Indians, Private Cherokees

Christina Taylor Beard-Moose

The University of Alabama Press
2009
nidottu
A major economic industry among American Indian tribes is the public promotion and display of aspects of their cultural heritage in a wide range of tourist venues. Few do it better than the Eastern Band of the Cherokee, whose homeland is the Qualla Boundary of North Carolina. Through extensive research into the work of other scholars dating back to the late 1800s and interviews with a wide range of contemporary Cherokees, Beard-Moose presents the two faces of the Cherokee people. One is the public face that populates the powwows, dramatic presentations, museums, and myriad roadside craft locations. The other is the private face whose homecoming, Indian fairs, traditions, belief system, community strength, and cultural heritage are threatened by the very activities that put food on their tables.Constructing an ethnohistory of tourism and comparing the experiences of the Cherokee with the Florida Seminoles and Southwestern tribes, this work brings into sharp focus the fine line between promoting and selling Indian culture.
