Before arriving in Florida, the Seminole Indians primarily resided in the southeastern United States, particularly in regions that are now part of Georgia and Alabama. They are believed to have descended from various Native American groups, including the Creek Indians, who migrated to Florida in the 18th century. The Seminoles formed as a distinct group in Florida in the early 19th century, blending different tribal influences and cultures. Their movement to Florida was influenced by European colonization and pressures from other tribes.

Do seminole Indians train wild horses to ride them?
Since the Seminole Indians came from Cree, Creek and Cherokee, they were all very familiar with horses brought by the Spanish invaders. Of course some of them were able to train and ride horses. In the wetlands and swamps horses were of limited use and it depended upon where the Seminoles lived whether they used horses or not.
In what year did the Seminole Nation come into existence?
The Seminole are a Native American people originally of Florida, and now residing in that state and in Oklahoma. The Seminole nation came into existence in the 18th century and was composed of Indians from Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida, most significantly the Creek Nation, as well as African Americans who escaped from slavery in South Carolina and Georgia (see Black Seminoles). While roughly 3,000 Seminoles were forced west of the Mississippi River, including the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma, who picked up new members along their way, approximately 300 to 500 Seminoles stayed and fought in and around the Everglades of Florida. In a series of wars against the Seminoles in Florida, about 1,500 U.S. soldiers died. The Seminoles never surrendered to the United States government, hence, the Seminoles of Florida call themselves the "Unconquered People." The Florida Seminoles are the only American Indian tribe never to sign a formal peace treaty with the United States.Source: Answers.com
