From Slavery to Statehood a Family History in the Creek Nation [Paperback]
Chaney Cousins said, "I was born in the Creek Nation, Indian Territory and was a slave of Jackson Cousins a Creek Indian." It is a little known fact that some Creek Native Americans were slaveholders. This is a non-fiction book about my ancestor's enslavement in the Creek Nation in Indian Territory. Tina and Daniel, the parents of Chaney, arrived with their owners in the new land west of the Mississippi. They cleared the land built structures and planted the first crops making them also pioneers of the "Wild West." The narratives, documents and photos in this book bring three generations to life during the period of 1828 to 1907. This book reveals their journey and survival from slavery to land ownership and finally to the statehood of Oklahoma.
