In May 1838, General Winfield Scott moved approximately 7,000 troops into Cherokee country as part of the forced removal known as the Trail of Tears. This military operation aimed to ensure compliance with the removal of the Cherokee people from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States to designated Indian Territory west of the Mississippi River. The operation was marked by significant hardship and suffering for the Cherokee.
