Module 2

    I have always been interested in different facets of American history, after all this is where I was born and raised.  I have always been open to the facts, and will at least investigate if the facts state I should.  I am proud to be an American but we where not always peaceful but sometime ago we where conquers.  I guess in some ways not much has changed, we do have militaries all over the world but I will state for the most part it is to discourage violence, not enhance it.  We have learned so much about Indians and the different facets and tribes in this class it is truly amazing.  I just got done visiting Alabama a couple of summers ago.  I also just got done having a child, and this made me look at some recent family photos.  I know this seems to have nothing to do with this class but it got me thinking about what Indians lived in Alabama.  I went through (https://www.accessgenealogy.com/native/alabama-indian-tribes.htm) which states all different kinds of states and Indians that resided their.  This awesome article state "
Apalachicola Indians =
Very early this tribe lived on the Apalachicola and Chattahoochee Rivers, partly in Alabama. Sometime after 1715 they settled in Russell County, on the Chattahoochee River where they occupied at least two different sites before removing with the rest of the Creeks to the other side of the Mississippi.
Atasi Indians=
A division or subtribe of the Muskogee.
Chatot Indians=
This tribe settled near Mobile after having been driven from Florida and moved to Louisiana about the same time as the Apalachee."  These are only the top three Indian tribes, but I am just showing this example to promote and help any one trying to complete their final reflection project.  As we all have learned most Indian tribes enjoy song, lived of the land.   Some enjoyed the buffalo, while others tried to become "friends with the white man" but all in all I hope all of you are enjoying this class as much as I am.
