Fort Smith, Arkansas
Fort Smith, Arkansas
In 1838, the fort was a key stop along the Trail of Tears, marking entry into Indian Territory for those who took the water route. Once the Trail of Tears had concluded, Fort Smith was used again to hold dominion over the population of Indian Territory.
“Hanging Judge” Isaac Parker was appointed to the bench at Fort Smith in 1875. Judge Parker’s jurisdiction was the Western District of Arkansas, which included over half of the state of Arkansas and all of the Indian Territory. For years Judge Parker heard cases involving disputes between Indians and non-Indians. He sentenced 160 people to death, many with no right of appeal. His jurisdiction over Indian Territory ended in September 1896, and he died less than two months later.

Murrell Home
Murrell Home
The Hunter's Home, formerly known as the George M. Murrell Home, is a historic house museum at 19479 E Murrel Rd in Park Hill, near Tahlequah, Oklahoma in the Cherokee Nation. Built in 1845, it is one of the few buildings to survive in Cherokee lands from the antebellum period between the Trail of Tears relocation of the Cherokee people and the American Civil War. It was a major social center of the elite among the Cherokee in the mid-nineteenth century.[4] It has been owned by the state since 1948, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1974.
Cherokee Heritage Center
Cherokee Heritage Center
The Cherokee Heritage Center was established by the Cherokee Historical Society in 1966 on the original Park Hill site of the Cherokee National Female Seminary. Although only the Seminary’s columns remain, visitors will be charmed by the 19th century Adams Corner Rural Village and the 1710 Diligwa Cherokee Village, which highlight Cherokee life in two very different times. Both attractions are staffed by Cherokee living history interpreters. The 44-acre grounds showcase historical markers from Chief John Ross to runner Andy Payne. Within the CHC’s rock walls are a permanent Trail of Tears exhibit, along with revolving history exhibits and art shows, plus the popular Cherokee Family Research Center, where visitors can explore Cherokee ancestry.
