There was a tremendous amount of information written about Nancy Ward. She is mentioned in Teddy Roosevelt's Book On The West, The Virginia State Papers, The South Carolina State Papers, In Mooneys Book and The Draper Collection.There is a Chapter of The American Daughters Of the Revolution named after her in Tennesee., and there is a Descendants Of Nancy Ward Association on Oklahoma. As a child Nancy ward was called "Wild Rose" Later after having been lost and having a vision of the spirit people helping her find her way home she was named "Nanye'hi" which means "One who is with the Spirit People". Later during the Battle of Taliwa against the Creeks she was Chewing the bullets her husband Kingfisher was using. He was shot and killed. She then took up his Rifle and joined the fight. For her heroics in Battle she was named "Ghi'hau" or Beloved Woman". In her teens and a widowed mother of two daughters she was given the title of Chieftainess. As "Beloved Woman" she was a Peace Negotiator and Ambassador for her people. She became a strong advocate of human rights for both red and white men. She had a strong voice for peace and attended many meetings between the white settlers the government and her people. She was involved in many of the treaties. Nancy ward brought the first cows to the Cherokee Nation. She wrote the "White father" President saying "Our people would have more hoes, plows, seed, Cotton carding and looms for weaving. They would learn your way of Cultivation. If you would send these things we will put them to good use". And he did. He also sent agents to administer and help. Nancy was a Revolutionary war patriot in that she gave aid (Cattle and Clothing) to Colonel Sevier and his men during the Revolution. Nancy Ward had a vision where she saw " A great line of our people marching on foot. Mothers with babies in their arms. Fathers with small children on their back. Grandmothers and Grandfathers with large bundles on their backs. They were marching West and the "Unaka" ( White Soldiers ) were behind them. They left a trail of corpses the weak, the sick who could not survive the journey". This dream proved to be prophetic. On December 29, 1835 Thirteen years after her death, a removal treaty was signed. The Cherokee called this journey the "Nunna-da-ult-sun-yi" The Trail Where They Cried. The Trail Of Tears.
