Chief Vann House State Historic Site / State Park, Georgia - Travels With Phil

At one time, this home was considered one of the "fanciest" homes (inside and out) on the east coast of America. The family was also considwered one of the wealthiest in Georgia and the South. According to the Georgia State Park: "During the 1790s, James Vann became a Cherokee Indian leader and wealthy businessman. He established the largest and most prosperous plantation in the Cherokee Nation, covering 1,000 acres of what is now Murray County. In 1804 he completed construction of a beautiful 2 ½ story brick home that was the most elegant in the Cherokee Nation. After Vann was murdered in 1809, his son Joseph inherited the mansion and plantation. Joseph was also a Cherokee leader and became even more wealthy than his father. In the 1830s almost the entire Cherokee Nation was forced west by state and federal troops on the infamous Trail of Tears. The Vann family lost their elegant home, rebuilding in the Cherokee Territory of Oklahoma. Today the Vann House survives as Georgia’s best-preserved historic Cherokee Indian home. A guided tour allows visitors to see the house which features beautiful hand carvings, a remarkable “floating” staircase, a 12-foot mantle and fine antiques." - Travels with Phil copyrighted by Phil Konstantin - - - - - You can see some of my photos of the area through this link: http://travelswithphil.com/verybigpho... - - - - Links: 1. https://gastateparks.org/ChiefVannHouse 2. https://gastateparks.smugmug.com/Chie... 3.    • Walking in Two Worlds: The Vann Family and...   = State Park Video 4. https://www.nps.gov/places/chief-vann... 5.    • Exploring Cherokee History: The First Cher...   - First Cherokee Christmas 6. https://www.muskogeephoenix.com/cnhi_... - - - - Photo Credits: My own Google Earth - - - - Video Credits: My own Google Earth - - - - Music Credits: - - - - You can subscribe to my YouTube Channel at this link ----- https://www.youtube.com/user/cherokee...
