The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗Coosawda was home to a Creek (Coushatta tribe) village called Koasati in the 18th and early 19th centuries. By invitation, many Chickamauga Cherokee followers of Dragging Canoe fled to the town during and following the American War of Independence. Coosada was the birthplace of influential Creek leader William Weatherford, who led the Red Stick uprising of 1813–1814. After that, the Native American population was removed to the west.
