Description
In the 1830’s, most of the five civilized tribes of the southeast (Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and the Seminole) were forced to move from the southeast to west of the Mississippi River. Most of the Indians wanted to stay in their homeland here in the south. In 1830 President Andrew Jackson passed the Indian Removal Act.
This statue, of woman and baby, is located in Spring Park in Tuscumbia, AL. It is dedicated to all those that died on the "Trail of Tears".
