Men and Regiments Assigned to Remove Cherokee's in 1832 – Tennessee Trails.

Israel Blagg and Jefferson Blagg are listed. Israel gets a land grant in Arkansas due to his service.

This contains some interesting information on the Granddaughter and family of Elizabeth Jane Blagg who married Richard Fields of the Cherokee. There seems to be connections between the Fields, Blaggs, Muskrats, and Eatons so just thought this might give some background on what they went thru.

This would be the older Israel Blagg and would probably be the one on the Indian Removal petitions. I’m very curious as to where he fits.
