The wills in this book come from Book A of the Wills found at the Logan County Court house in Russellville, Kentucky.

The largest of the so-called Five Civilized Tribes, which also included Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks, and Seminoles, the Cherokees were the first tribe to have a written language, and by 1820 they had even adopted a form of government … Read more
