Monument For A Veteran's Grave

Monument For a Veteran's Grave.

The council of the Cherokee nation has decided to erect a monument to mark the grave of George Lowrey, who played an important part in the affairs of the nation from 1790 to 1850 or thereabout. Lowrey served as captain of horse under Andrew Jackson throughout the war of 1812, and he and his Cherokees fought for the government in subsequent Indian wars.
