Plot

In 1819 to 1820 several hundred Cherokees--led by Duwali, a chief from Tennessee--settled along the Sabine, Neches, and Angelina rivers in east Texas. Welcomed by Mexico as a buffer to U.S. settlement, Duwali's people had separated from other Western Cherokees in an effort to retain the tribe's traditional lifeways.
