Indians Once Had Trail Across
Northern Sections Of Cleveland
(Written especially for The Star
by W. F. .White, Cleveland County
Historian.)
A historic incident unknown to
many of our Cleveland county peo
ple is the fact that the Catawba
and' Cherokee Indians once had o
trail across the northern portion of
our county. The Catawba tribe lived
in the Piedmont region of this
state near the river that now bears
their name, while the Cherokee
dwelt in the mountainous section in
the vicinity of what is now Bryson
City. These tribes of red men, be
ing on friendly terms. frequently
visited and communicated with
each other. The Indians, it spurns
had a trail that extended from be
yond the mountanis into the ter
ritory held by the Catawba*. Ac
cording to authentic information
this trail crossed the little peak
known In Rutherford county as the
Jack Moore Mountain. extending
on through Cleveland by the Lat
timore and Packard mill place, and
by the old Lattimore home, just
north of Hinton's creek, going on
westward in the direction of Bel
wood and other places in that local
ity, and ending X presume, some
where in Lincoln or Catawba
county.
Indian Camp Grounds.
It can also be cstabUshgd that
the Indians had one or rhore camp
ing grounds in upper Cleveland
Mrs. Mary Gantt a 99 year old lady
of Shelby, who formerly lived near
Belwood crh tes.lfy to this. In the
days of her childhood this goou
lady remembers hearing the old
people of that generation speak of
the Indian camp that was once in
that vicinity. Various Indian relics
I am informed, have been found at
this former camping ground of the
red men just a small distance front
Belwood. And Mrs. Gantt tells an
other interesting incident. When
she was a small girl, she saw an
Indian who was passing through
that region. It happened in this
way: The travelling red man stop
ped to spend the night with the
late Tyre Gantt who called in lit •
tie Mary Ledford, now Mrs. Gantt,
to see the strange looking man.
Perhaps this Indian was following
the old trail once used by his an
cestors In going from the mountains;
to the piedmont section, but this Is
merely conjecture.
Old Indian Haunt*.
In addition to this old camp near
Belwood, there Is reason for believ
ing there are other such sites In
this county. Not far from Big Hill
church In No. 10 township. Is a
place called Indlnntown. Although
I have not learned why this place
bears. lM.mma lUtias.it Is reason
able to assume that some Incident
of Indian history or tradition 1* re
sponsible for It. Since the place Is
only a few miles from the old camp
at Belwood. it is very likely that
the Indians hunted considerably In
that section and probably had an
other camp there. And, too, Just a
few miles east In Lincoln county ir
Indian creek whose very name sug
gests that this region was once s
favorite camping or hunting ground
for the red men. On the other side
of the county, in No. 8 township. It
is thought that the Indians had a
camp on Flint Hill creek, about ?00
yards east of the homo of the late
William Chitwood, and still anoth -
er within less than a half a mile
north of this place. Mr. J. C. Elliott,
aged Confederate veteran, says
when he was a boy the pottery and
other Indian relics found at theas
places Indicated that the red men
had At some time camped here,
noth of these camps are located on
land once owned by Mr. Elliott's
grandfather, the late John C. El
liott.
Dispute Over Horses.
The Catawba and Cherokee In
diana figure prominently In the
history of our state. Catawba coun
ty and the river east of it are call
ed In honor of the first, while
Cherokee county got Its name from
the latter. The tribe of Catawbas
was small, but the Cherokees con
stituted one of the strongest Indian
nations on the continent. At Ural
the last named were strong friends
of the whites, though enmity even
tually arose as a result of a misun
derstanding about the townershtp of
some horses. During the Revolu
tionary war the Cherokees, being
Incited by the British came over
the Blue Ridge mountains In great
force, but were driven back by
General Rutherford. In 1838 a por
tion of their tribe was removed to
Oklahoma then known as Indian
territory. Two of the men assisting
in the removal of these Indians
were Captain Thomas Elliott and
Squire John Cook of upper Clev
eland. When the Civil war broke out
the Cherokees living In western
North Carolina were thoroughly in
sympathy with the South and their
chief served as a lieutenant In the
Confederate army. Their reserva
tion tn this state embraces thou
sands of acres and they are mak
ing admirable progress. They hold
a fair each year that Is attended by
thousands of people from various
sections of the country. At this fatr
may be seen the type of weapons,
pottery and utensils used by their
forebears, or perhaps by the Ca*
tawbas, when they formerly camp
ed and hunted tn Cleveland county,
or traveled the trail across It.
At a meeting of early Irish pota
to growers at Washington, Beau
fort county, last week an agree
ment was signed to reduce and, as
far as possible, to prevent an in
crease In acreage to the orop this
season.
