This volume presents the story of the Eastern Band of Cherokees during the nineteenth century. This group - the tribal remnant in North Carolina that escaped removal in the 1830's - found their fortitude and resilience continually tested as they struggled with a variety of problems, including the upheavals of the Civil War and Reconstruction, internal divisiveness, white encroachment on their lands, and a poorly defined relationship with the state and federal governments. Yet despite such stresses and a selective adaptation in the face of social and economic changes, the Eastern Cherokees retained a sense of tribal identity as they stood at the threshold of the twentieth century.

These records are census taken of the Eastern band of the Cherokee that survived in the mountains of North Carolina following the removal of the majority of the Cherokee to the western territory in 1836-1838. The followers of the Cherokee Tasli hid out in the mountains in western North Carolina and for years, the whites tried to dislocate them to the west. Finally, the government of North Carolina deeded them the Qualla Reservation. These census listings are the basis for much of those recognized on the Baker Roll of the Eastern Band for membership into the Cherokee nation. A careful study of these records will determine if there is Cherokee in your background for the Eastern Band, at least.
