No they didn't. The pilgrims spoke English, they had translators who spoke a tribes language. The Indians learned English (they actually had schools for this, there are some great books on the subject), and I'm sure the pilgrims picked up some words as well.
Actually the language spoken by the Cherokee is "Tsalagi"(Jah-Sa-LaGe). There are at least 23 different dialects of Tsalagi spoken, some so different that the speaker of one cannot understand another, and these different dialects can change from clan to clan. Tsalagi remains the commonly spoken root by most Cherokee. Some of the words and phrases of Cherokee appear to be Hebraic in origin as are some of the religious concepts. However since there is no concrete evidence for such a claim, it remains simply speculation.
The Native American tribes forced to move along the Trail of Tears were the Cherokee, the Chickasaw, the Seminole, Creek, and the Choctaw were the main tribes.
One of the first was created by Sequoyah, the leader of the Cherokee nation. It contained 85 characters, representing the syllables of the Cherokee language. It was used as far back as 1828, in the "Cherokee Phoenix," the first newspaper published by what were then called Indians (and today are called Native Americans). The newspaper was bilingual-- English and Cherokee. I enclose a link to some information about it, which includes images of what written Cherokee looked like.
There were more than a few, most of the principle chiefs survived the move. Needless to say that would encompass naming a few hundred people. To name one, Chief John Ross (Cherokee).

yes some of the Cherokee Indians and Crow Indians got alone but some did not.
Yes, some of the original homelands for the Cherokee were in Tennessee.
No, Indians (Cherokee) did not migrate to that area, they were there when white settlers migrated to the area from Europe however and some certainly stayed.
Some did, some didn't, and some tolerated them.
Mostly anything they can find usually.
