The Seminole tribe were the furthest from Oklahoma, and were the most distant tribe. A great portion of their journey was done by ship however, and the Cherokee were the furthest eastern tribe forced to walk the entire distance.
The Trail of Tears was a time of uncommon cruelty and misery. Thousands of men, women and children were driven from their homes simply because someone else wanted their land. They were powerless to defend themselves, and many died during the journey.
The President of the United States (Andrew Jackson) violated a court order from the United States Supremem Court and used federal law enforcement officials to remove the Cherokee. He had been ordered to protect them from the state militias. Arguably, no American president has ever shown such contempt for the rule of law.
yes they were apart of the trail of tears
The Cherokee Indians were treated very BADLY! Many of them died along the way.
The Cheeroke trail was 1500 miles trough the rain snow ect. barefoot. The trail of tears veried depending on ther tribe, while the cheeroke is just the most famous.
They made necklaces and stuff with beads, woven baskets, made dolls out of small pieces of cloth , moccasins and leather goods from deer hide
The Cherokee Indians, as most Native American tribes, do not name their babies when they are born. They give them names as the grow. Some Cherokee Indian baby girl names are Adahy, Aiyanna, Enola, Delsin, Magena, Nita, Nova, and Waki.
The whites involved in the Trail of tears would have been the soldiers who accompanied and initiated the migration, and the settlers and government officials who ignored the Supreme Court and required the migration.
To answer a question we need a what, who, when, where, why or how. Your question needs a when.
Because of the forced march, many Cherokee starved to death on the Trail of Tears.

Yes, Native Americans enjoyed dodging bullets (the militia charged locals .25 cents a shot to shoot at them - historically documented), they also enjoyed sneaking away from the corrals to try and find food; it was like Hide-n-Seek (only you got beat, raped, or murdered if caught), they also enjoyed a game much like 'fireman's carry' of the wounded, and sick; they also had a game much like a 'three legged race' when trying to help the elderly walk. Just to name a few of the entertaining delights they experienced on the Trail of Tears.
The ''Trail of Tears'' goes from southeastern United States westward to Oklahoma.
Starting in 1831, the Cherokee, Muscogee (Creek), Seminole, and Choctaw Nations were forcibly resettled.
It was a long terrible journey. In 1838, 15,000 Cherokee Indians were forced to move to what is now present day Oklahoma. During this event 4,000 Cherokees died.
John H. Ross, decorated World War II pilot, was 95 when he died on August 9, 2013. (born June 8, 1918).
This was a forced marches of several tribes starting in 1831. The Choctaw became the first to be removed and their removal was a model for future relocations. After 2 wars the Seminoles were removed in 1832 and the Creek in 1834, Chickasaw in 1837, and finally the Cherokee in 1838. Along with the tribes were spouses, African Americans, and slaves. By 1837 46,000 Native Americans had been removed from their lands. This open 25 million acres for white settlers. The largest death toll comes from the forced relocation of the Cherokee. In 1838 the remaining Cherokee were rounded into camps and of over 700 people. Disease spread quickly throughout the closely quartered groups. The marchers were subject to violence along the route and they were forced to march in the hottest and coldest months. This killed many from exposure, disease, and starvation, harassment by local frontiersman, and lack of rations. Up to one-third of the Choctaw and others died on the march.

They were not that different at all, in overall outcome and events.
The "Holocaust" (extermination of Jews and Pol's (persons from Poland)) killed more people and that is about all of the differences.
______
The trail of tears was one part in the government's actions against the aboriginal population, where as the Holocaust is the collective name for all the actions.

There is no record of the actual names of the persons who traveled the Trail of Tears; in fact they can only estimate the number that died, much less of the actual people that died. As a general statement, the people that died were Native American Indians of the Cherokee, Creek (Muscogee), Chickasaw, Choctaw and Seminole tribes.
