EspañolAPALACHICOLA (TRIBE)
The 'Apalachicola' (also called 'Pallachacola'[1]) were a group of Native Americans related to the Creek. They spoke a Muskogean language related to Hitchiti. They lived along the Apalachicola River.
Around 1706 some of the Apalachicola moved from the Apalachicola River area to the Savannah River, close to the colony of South Carolina. They may have been captured during English-sponsored slave raids and forced to relocate to the Savannah River. A census taken in 1708 described the Apalachicola of the Savannah River as the "Naleathuckles", with 80 men settled in a town about 20 miles up the Savannah River. A more accurate census was taken by John Barnwell in early 1715. This census describes the Savannah River Apalachicola as living in two villages and having a population of 214 people — 64 men, 71 women, 42 boys, and 37 girls.[2]
In the Yamasee War of 1715 they joined in the attacks on South Carolina. Afterwards the survivors returned to the Apalachicola River, near the juncture of the Chattahoochee River and Flint River. Some later moved north to live along the Chattahoochee River in present-day Russell County, Alabama.
After two Indian Removal treaties made in 1833 and 1834 with the United States, the Apalachicola moved, in 1836-1840, to present-day Oklahoma.
The Apalachicola River is named after them, as is Apalachicola Bay and the city of Apalachicola, Florida.
