Is the end of the trail synonomous with Trail of Tears?

Well, the question isn't clearly enough stated to answer. the migration of the Cherokees is synonimous with the end of the Trail of Tears process, if that's what you mean.This is not what I mean. I have a history paper due on Wednesday, and the thing I have to write about is "Why do historians not have an accurate account of what went happened during the trail of tears?"I'm just a seventh grader, but I'm doing a research projects on the Trail of Tears, and an answer to your question could be, Historians have an accurate account of what happened during the Trail of Tears because many Cherokees and Settlers did live through it, and the story was passed on. Also, I'm sure many Americans kept a record or wrote down things about it.Hey, I just wanna say that he/she was asking why historians don't have a good record of what happened on the trail of tears. Well if i had to answer it I would say that many of the documents were damaged or lost on the long journey and that many of the Cherokee on the trail didn't have a useful way to record what happened to them. That's what I would say.

That would depend upon the essence of your essay, or what your focus Is. If, for instance, your essay is just a narrative of what the Cherokee Trail of Tears was, then I would end it with brief summation pointing out that the Cherokee Trail of Tears was but one trail of tears many tribes had to endure. If your focus is on how it was an illegal removal, then you might summarize and point out how this deliberate disobeying of the Supreme Court, would not have been tolerated.
