- The Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky (SCNK) claim descent from the Cherokee forcibly removed to Indian Territory in 1838,[1][2] and to have first emerged as a distinct political faction known as the Treaty Party before the Trail of Tears, circa 1835.[3][4] They report having fled Indian territory, after the American Civil War, circa 1871 for Kentucky to escape Reconstruction era violence.[5] They have been headquartered at Henderson, Kentucky since the late 19th century,[6] and, according to the State-Journal of Frankfort, Kentucky, they are assumed to be the oldest Native American presence in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.[7] The SCNK states it had an estimated one thousand members as of 2009, living in several US states, and that it is "not affiliated with any other group calling themselves Southern Cherokee".[8][9]
