The Trail of Tears occurred in the 1830s–about 50,000 Indians were driven from the east to west of the Mississippi. This is the only photo I have found, and I have no info on it. Date, tribe, location are not known. THe government gave the lands to whites–racism at its finest.

The Cherokee Trail of Tears started in October 1838. About 18,000 Cherokees went west to Oklahoma, about 25% dying on the way. The family in my novel, Stone Man and the Trail of Tears, fled from the soldiers.

The Cherokee Trail of Tears had 3 paths in Kentucky. The northern-most trail passed near Hopkinsville (broken line). The middle trail followed the Tennessee River (blue line). The southern line crossed the Mississippi River at Columbus-Belmont State Park (dark line). The family in my novel, Stone Man and the Trail of Tears, tried to escape from the Trail of Tears.
