Query posted March 18, 2006

Seeking records on Indian Village located in l848-49 on "Puttahcahcoah Creek" (this may be your present Petticocowa Creek) - information taken from American State Papers under the title of "Indians Owning Farms"...does anyone out there know about this settlement and if there exists data concerning same or suggestions on where I might access this information. I am specifically looking for records concerning Choctaw Emmahka, widow of Choctaw Jeremiah Carney, who was living on 3 cultivated acres of land on "Puttahcahcoah Creek" with 5 in the family. To find this data is important for the ongoing of my research.
