It’s not “Indian” it’s “natives” or “indigenous”. And it has been for a long time

This post is a lie. 1.) Native Americans did not marry. 2.) If they were in love, they simply moved together. 3.) If they decided to break up, they simply stopped living together. 4.) Children were the responsibility of the entire village. The only way a white woman could be a part of an Indian village is if she were captured in war or abandoned by her family. Why would an Indian want to marry a woman that knew nothing of their customs? Native Americans weren't rapist, colonizers were!

EVER SO SAD

So why would Europeans be trespassing on Indigenous Lands? -COMANCHE NATION

To be fair, many of the women who lived with Indian tribes did not want to return to the white community. They much preferred the Native American way of life.

I am amazed Mrs. Bard survived.

Thank you for this story. My four times great grandmother was also kidnapped by the Delaware Indians (turtle clan of the Delawares led by chief Killbuck). She was held six years after the Fort Seybert massacre and escaped at Fort Pitt.

calling Natives "rude forest people"? What is this, 1850?

AS YOU SIR I WAS ALSO A LIFELONG INTERESTED MAN OF EARLY HISTORY AND THE STORIES GROW WHAT WAS DONE BETWEEN INDIANS AND SETTLERS GOES INSAINLY BEYOND EVEN THE MOST EVIL OF IMAGINATIONS OF WHAT OCCURED BUT WHERE ALSO AMAZES ME DEATH WAS AS COMMON AS BREATHING MURDER BEING THE CAUSE

THIS IS ALLL WRONG‼️THIS PERSON NARRATING? IS A FOOL WHO THINKS HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT‼️HE DOES NOT‼️CALLING ANY NATIVE WOMAN A “SQUAW” …MEANS “WHORE”‼️‼️HE MAKES IT LIKE IT’S ACCEPTABLE…& IT IS NOT‼️‼️

thank you very much.

Very interesting video. Thank you !

Fantastic content. Thank you

my sons are creeks. this is an important part of their history

👍

I'm surprised they didn't just fill Georgia with Scotts. Isn't human meat shields for the English their normal role. I'm about 40% Ulster Scott...lol. Fight the Irish for land they said; then fight the Indians for land they said. Though, the second was for William Penn in Pennsylvania before heading to western North Carolina.

America is Egypt. Admit that. The French and Germans are the "natives" NAIVE w a "T"

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Do the genealogy. Find out who they really were.

FAAAAAKE

thomas caustin, interesting, Thomas Didymus Costin had first show here, wife's family related to highway robbery convict, pardonned. seems the son sold arsenic and strychnine, and local mob died of "alcohol" poisoining.. but the had staged bullock train breakdowns with poison flour to kill off original people around one tree hill battles, interesting re UK history before scots/catholics etc took off doing horrible things a long way from crown who was happy to kill off problems as origins story.

great info , well presented, Thanks

I love when white people in this country claim they have Indian blood in them. so laughable I guess they claim that so they can feel more Americana then others

I don't watch history channel anymore ,to much liberal hogwash.keep up the original content from early scribes

born and raised in savannah and boy has the climate changed since then 🥵

Those were some brutal times. Great history lesson. Thank you

Hard to feel empathy after this

Good job exposing the truth about the peaceful, nature loving society of brave and noble buffalo hunters, who definitely, don't murder children, or rape women, and are definitely not genocidal.

Thanks for sharing this. I grew up in Nashville and all these place names and family names are familiar to me. Very educational : )

Salute to my Creek and Chickamauga brethren.

Pretty bad ass story

Born and raised in Nashville and now in Murfreesboro.

I grew up in Chickamauga Ga. I never really read much about the Indians the town was named after. Thank you. 😊

A thought just hit me. How dense was the Indian population in the east? Like where this story is taking place. I've never heard any discussion about that. Out in Dakota Territory and further west, including southern plains the Indians per square mile would seem much less. The flatter terrain and huge tracts of nearly treeless land just doesn't seem like a good setup for a very dense population. Listening to the stories of the late 1700s gives me the impression there could be an Indian behind every bush or bend in the river. Also, it seems the settlers were always getting ambushed or fired at by unseen Indians most of the time. Maybe they were alert and the Indians were super good at camouflage. But I can't help but think there was some naivety involved with some settlers. Anyway I certainly don't envy them poor folks with their flintlock muzzle-loaders. I'll take an AR15 or re-think about moving west. In a pinch, I'd settle for two Winchester 1866's so I'd have one as a quick "reload". And add a couple .45 revolvers also.

I really enjoy hearing the history of the region I love, recognizing many of the names of towns and rivers that I have personally visited.

They came to a land of star forts, think about it.

Today America shows its respect by allowing woke to call their offsprings with name calling contempt calling us while eleite when we are not elite but better life seekers we are hated in the land we founded while whoke fools. This is America today, we will see if we bounce back.

There is some great history from both before and after this time (1780) here in Indiana. I've got some wonderful articles from similar books that would be great for your channel. I just have to find the links!

I think I missed part of the story. She gave Jumping Bear a secret letter, that he took to the fort. The letter informed them that she was being held captive with the group of Indians. And about a week later, those same Indians, who were getting ready to wage war against the White men in the fort, instead, walked Fanni into the fort and delivered her back to her people? I know I missed something in this story.

What fascinating accounts of what the settlers had to go through that built this country. Imagine having to live in a place knowing at anytime you could be attacked by a vicious enemy out of nowhere I used to go to the market fair they have at Manskers Station, was always a good event and I always sold well

Thank you for exposing the truths and hardships suffered to build our nation!

If he'd been half a man he'd have gone down defending his family instead of running away.

Never said what became of Mrs. Bard. Does this mean she stayed a captive?

My ancestors on m in maternal side were enslaved and sold from South Carolina to Georgia. One brand was attained by a man named Wade Jones and he migrated to east Texas. The other were taken by the family of Chief McIntosh of the Creek and taken to Oklahoma.

Treaties? It's stolen land.

I bet you the majority of "indian attacks" were actually carried out by whites. Native Americans were an easy scapegoat.

I was in her theater room one night watching a movie, I fell asleep. I woke up, something grabbed my leg and jerked me out of the recliner. I told my daughter, dont buy this house. It was a huge beautiful house. But it was haunted, or that land was. They bought a house by that large lake in Hendersonville, that lakes huge. So is her house.

My daughter lives in Hendersonville. I was at her rental house sitting in her garage smoking, I had the door open It was cold and raining. I looked up, and there was an Indian standing sideways outside in Indian clothing. Then he disappeared. I have seen ghosts since childhood. I told my daughter about this, and said, this was built on Indian land. I googled it and found out it was. A lake was behind her house. It was old, not manmade. I guess indians used this lake for water and fishing. The man who had the farm had a large group of horses there.

I have heard stories that Wesley wasn’t a Christian until the return to England In 1738 where he learned of personal salvation at Aldersgate where he learned that “you are saved by grace through faith.”
