Osteneco (Judd's Friend)
by D. H. Corkran, 1991
1705?-1777?
Osteneco (Judd's Friend), the second warrior of the Overhill Cherokee and a member of the Wolf
Clan, was known to the colonials as Judd's Friend (sometimes Judge's Friend) because early in his
career he had saved a trader named Judd from Cherokee wrath. He appears in the South Carolina
records as one of "the two Tacites," or great warriors, of Tellico in Monroe County, Tenn. His name
signifies "The Pigeon."

As a great warrior of Tellico, he was one of the principal supporters of the South
Carolina-sponsored spurious "Emperor," Ammonscossitte, or the "Young Emperor of Tellico."
When in 1751 the Tellico coterie of headmen decided to treat with South Carolina to obtain the
removal of a trade embargo occasioned by disorders arising from the Creek-Cherokee war,
Osteneco was the agent sent to enlist the support of the Cherokee Lower Towns. The headmen of
Chota, the legitimate Overhill capital, frustrated this move. Despite Chota opposition, Osteneco
persisted and went to Charles Town, where he won Governor James Glen's agreement to hold a
conference on the condition that the Tellico headmen would bring the recalcitrant Chota headmen
to Charles Town. The Chota headmen, inspired by the "Little Carpenter," hoped to break the South
Carolina trade monopoly by obtaining trade in Virginia and refused to attend. The Tellicos went
ahead with the conference and agreed to halt visits of the northern Indians, who had inspired the
disorders, and to deliver up the troublemakers if Glen would remove the embargo and negotiate a
Creek peace. But since the Cherokee were slow to implement the treaty terms, Governor Glen did
not make a Creek peace for them or fully restore the trade.

Disillusioned with South Carolina, the Young Emperor went to Virginia to seek trade but failed to
 Generation 2 (con't)
Disillusioned with South Carolina, the Young Emperor went to Virginia to seek trade but failed to
obtain it. In this circumstance he lost the confidence of the Tellicos and of South Carolina. The
Tellicos then accepted Chota leadership. Osteneco, to be nearer the seat of power, moved to the
Overhill town of Tomatley and became a member of the Chota council.

Osteneco tended to be a rival of the Little Carpenter. When in 1755 the Little Carpenter was
preventing Cherokee warriors from participating in the conflict between England and France in the
Ohio Valley in order to obtain better terms for trade, Osteneco recruited Overhill warriors to go to
Virginia's aid in the Sandy Creek expedition against the French-allied Shawnee in the winter of
1755-56. After this expedition failed, he went to Williamsburg, Va., for his reward. There he was
entertained by Governor Robert Dinwiddie, who was happy to treat with a Cherokee who was less
truculent than the Little Carpenter. He returned to the Overhills with Colonel Andrew Lewis's
expedition to build the Virginia fort near Chota agreed to by the Little Carpenter and other headmen
at the Treaty of Broad River in March 1756. When Virginia failed to garrison the fort and to
commence the promised trade, Osteneco's prestige fell somewhat. Nevertheless, in the ensuing
tensions, in which Old Hop, the Cherokee first man, began a correspondence with the French,
Osteneco favored the English, and when Captain Raymond Demere built Fort Loudoun for South
Carolina near Chota, Osteneco befriended him. He again led Overhill forces to support the Virginia
frontier, where he was active against the French until his recall late in 1757 on the occasion of a
misunderstanding that had led to the imprisonment in Winchester of several Cherokee deputies on
their way to visit the Six Nations in New York.

In the stressful years of 1758 and 1759, when the Cherokee were murdered by Virginia
frontiersmen, Osteneco opposed the Little Carpenter's efforts for peace and supported the great
warrior, Oconostota, in demands for war on the English. In the war with South Carolina that
followed, Osteneco planned and led the attack on Fort Loudoun that led to its fall.

Even after English and colonial forces had devastated the Cherokee country in campaigns of 1760
and 1761, Osteneco refused to consider peace. But he was finally prevailed upon to visit Colonel
Adam Stephens's Virginia forces, which were poised to strike the Overhill towns, and saw for
himself that resistance was useless and that good terms could be had-even better than those
obtained by Little Carpenter at Charles Town. He therefore set himself up as the proprietor of the
Virginia peace and escorted Lieutenant Henry Timberlake of the Virginia forces to Chota with the
final terms of the treaty. When these were ratified at Chota, Osteneco accompanied Timberlake to
Williamsburg to seal the peace with Governor Francis Fauquier. On the way he stopped at
Shadwell, the home of Peter Jefferson, which he had visited before. Osteneco was the Indian chief
best known to Thomas Jefferson, who had seen him at his father's house and who now visited him
at his camp near Williamsburg. During his interviews with Fauquier, Osteneco demanded to be
sent to England; for, he said, he desired to know whether the Little Carpenter, who had been in
England in 1730, spoke the truth. It would appear that Osteneco sought again to undermine the
Little Carpenter by absorbing to himself the glory of having talked personally with the king of
England.

In early May 1762 Osteneco, accompanied by Timberlake and William Shorey as guides and
interpreters and a few of his countrymen, set sail for England. Arriving in early June, the Indians
were a sensation. Fauquier had given Timberlake an introduction to Lord Egremont, who was to
look after the Indians and obtain an audience with the king. Osteneco's party lodged in a London
tavern, the proprietor of which began to charge admission to the visitors who flocked to see the
Indians. To escape this sort of thing as much as possible, Timberlake took his charges to various
public entertainment gardens, where again they were the center of attention. On one occasion,
Osteneco was given so many free drinks that he had to be dumped into a coach and hauled away.
However, he did review the Grenadier Guards, was entertained at the tables of various lords and
gentlemen, and finally was given an interview with the king. Osteneco prepared to smoke the pipe
of peace with King George, but the king did not smoke and the Indian was made to see that a man
so close to God could not smoke with mere mortals. During the two-hour meeting, Timberlake
interpreted the king's remarks as the professions of friendship he thought the Cherokee had come
to hear.

Despite unseemly episodes, the visit to England was a diplomatic and social success, and the
Indians set sail from England vastly impressed by English wealth, energy, and power. Osteneco
 Generation 2 (con't)
Indians set sail from England vastly impressed by English wealth, energy, and power. Osteneco
reached Charles Town in October 1762; thereafter, he was devoted to the English Crown and to its
agent, John Stuart, His Majesty's superintendent of the southern Indians.

Osteneco's devotion to the Crown was instrumental in frustrating the efforts of certain Creeks to
involve the Cherokee in the Pontiac conspiracy developing in the North. Sympathetic to this
conspiracy was Oconostota, the great warrior of the Cherokee who had been well treated by the
French during the Cherokee war with South Carolina and who deeply resented the English for
having held him hostage for a short time in 1759. Since Oconostota would not meet directly or treat
with the English, Osteneco as second warrior was the highest-ranking Cherokee warrior attending
Stuart's conference of the southern governors and southern Indians at Augusta, Ga., in November
1763. At this meeting, pledges of peace were obtained, a new trade agreement was made, and
Stuart and the southern governors agreed to mark a boundary between the Indians and the whites
beyond which there would be no settlements and no trespass. Osteneco did not speak at the
conference, but he did support all the propositions made by the Little Carpenter and regarded
himself, with the Little Carpenter, as a prop of peace with the whites.

Osteneco continued to oppose Oconostota's talks with war-minded Creeks, asserting that if the
Creeks went to war against the English, the Cherokee would join the English against them. In late
1764 he led a Cherokee war party to the Mississippi to waylay French trader convoys carrying
goods and ammunition, to support northern Indian hostility, to the frontier. He destroyed a small
convoy and brought back two French prisoners. After quarreling over the prisoners, Oconostota
finally released one and Osteneco sent the other to Charles Town.

In 1765, when Oconostota-angry at English trespasses on Cherokee hunting grounds-proposed to

precipitate war by killing the traders among the Cherokee, Osteneco joined the Little Carpenter in
thwarting the great warrior and preserving the peace.

During the next two years he led Cherokee parties to supervise the survey of the boundaries
between the Carolinas and the Cherokee. Thus, in June 1767 he was the principal Cherokee at
Governor William Tryon's survey of the North Carolina boundary. The occasion was festive with
many great speeches, the firing of salutes, and the drinking of fine wines, but Osteneco did warn of
rogues-both white and Indian-who would not respect the boundary, the whites hunting for deer and
the Indians hunting for horseflesh. The line, marked by blazes on trees, was completed only to the
top of Tryon Mountain but proclaimed as far as Chiswell's mines in Virginia.

In 1768 Osteneco joined the Cherokee headmen in protesting settlers' disregard of the boundary
line and attended Stuart's conference at Hard Labour, S.C., where the Cherokee agreed to the
boundary from Chiswell's mines to the mouth of the Great Kanawha in the Ohio River.

In the spring of 1769 he visited Virginia and North Carolina, stopping to see Governor Tryon at
New Bern. He returned by way of Charles Town, where he agreed to alter the Virginia line to
include white settlements west of the Kanawha but continued to protest white invasion of the
Cherokee hunting grounds.

In 1774 Osteneco became embittered against the frontiersmen when a settler at Watauga wantonly
killed one of his relatives who was escorting survivors of a wreck on the Tennessee River back to
Watauga. However, in 1776 he supported Stuart's effort to prevent the Cherokee from going to war
against the frontiersmen until the British-now engaged in the Revolutionary War-could launch a
major attack on the south. The young Cherokee warriors, disregarding Osteneco and their elders,
plunged into war and met disaster. The colonials retaliated with large expeditionary forces from
South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, ravaging the Cherokee country. Oconostota and the
Little Carpenter made a peace that ceded to North Carolina and to South Carolina large areas of
the Cherokee country; the Cherokee also agreed to remain neutral in the war between the
Americans and the English. The Cherokee who refused to accept the treaty and desired to
continue fighting withdrew to the Chickamauga Creek area of northwestern Georgia. When last
heard from, in 1777, Osteneco was in the Chickamauga region sending messages to Stuart at
Pensacola, demanding goods and ammunition with which to carry on the war. Presumably he died
shortly afterwards.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ostenaco (Ustanakwa, or "Big Head"), who preferred to go by the warrior's title he earned at any
early age,
"Mankiller" (Utsidihi), also known as Judd's Friend, who lived c. 1703 - 1780,[1] was the Warrior
(skiagusta) of
the Cherokee town Tomotley, residing previously in Great Tellico and probably born in Great
Hiwassee, finally
migrating in the town of Ultiwa on Ooltewah Creek (in the modern Hamilton County, Tennessee)
during the
Chickamauga wars. He was known as a great orator and a leading figure in diplomacy with British
colonial
authorities.
During the French and Indian War, Ostenaco at first aided the Colony of Virginia against the
French and the
Shawnee, but later turned against his erstwhile allies along with the rest of the Cherokee. He was
also involved in the
Anglo-Cherokee War and the Chickamauga wars.
Timberlake expedition
The party of Lieutenant Henry Timberlake (including Sergeant Thomas Sumter, an interpreter, and
a servant) arrived
 Generation 2 (con't)
a servant) arrived
in the Overhill town of Tomotley on 20 December, where they were greeted by one of the leading
men in the town,
Ostenaco, visiting from Keowee.[2]
After spending several days in Tomotley as guests of Ostenaco, Timberlake and his interpreter
proceeded to the
Overhill mother town of Chota, where a number of chiefs had gathered in the town's large
councilhouse. Ostenaco
gave a speech and ceremoniously buried a hatchet in the ground, symbolizing a state of peace
between the English
and the Cherokee. Afterward, Timberlake took part in a ceremony in which he smoked several
peace pipes with the
gathered chiefs, a practice Timberlake personally found "very disagreeable," but participated
without openly
complaining.[3]
Timberlake and Ostenaco continued southward to Citico, where
Timberlake was greeted by a ceremonial dance involving some 400
Cherokee. Timberlake recalled that the dancers were "painted all over
in a hideous manner" and that they "danced in a very uncommon
figure."[4] The town's chief, Cheulah, presented Timberlake with a
string of beads and held another pipe-smoking ceremony. The non-stop
pipe smoking made Timberlake so sick that he "could not stir for
several hours."[5] The following day, Timberlake and Ostenaco
traveled to Chilhowee, the second southernmost of the Overhill towns
on Timberlake's map, where the town's chief, Yachtino, held a peace
procession similar to that at Citico.[5]
His assignment largely completed, Timberlake returned to Tomotley
with Ostenaco on 2 January 1762. Timberlake spent the next few
weeks studying Cherokee habits and making notes for his map of the
Overhill country. At the end of January, rumors began trickling in from
Cherokee scouts of renewed hostilities with rival tribes to the north.
Although the rumors turned out to be based on a misunderstanding, Timberlake nevertheless grew
anxious and
begged Ostenaco to guide him back to Virginia. Ostenaco reluctantly agreed, and the party set out
on 10 March
1762. Just before departure, Timberlake witnessed the ceremonial return of a war party led by
Chief Willinawaw.
The party sang "the war-song" and planted a scalp-filled pole next to the councilhouse door.[6]
The Timberlake party had decided to make the return trip overland, having purchased horses from
the Cherokee.
Ostenaco, accompanied by several hundred Cherokee warriors, guided the Timberlake group
northward across what
is now known as the Great Indian Warpath, which follows the western base of the Appalachian
Mountains. On 11
March, the party arrived at the abandoned village of Elajoy along Little River in what is now
Maryville, and crossed
the French Broad River the following day. A week later, they reached Fort Robinson, which the
Stephen garrison
had abandoned but had left behind a large supply of flour. The expedition left Long Island on 22
March, continuing
northward to an abandoned army camp where Timberlake was despaired to find that a trunk
containing his
belongings had been looted. The party finally arrived in Williamsburg in early April.[7]
Visit to London
While in Williamsburg, Timberlake and Ostenaco attended a dinner
party at William & Mary College at which Ostenaco professed his
desire to meet the king of England. Although he feared the trip would
break him financially, Timberlake agreed. A young Thomas Jefferson,
then a student at the college, later wrote of Ostenaco:
"I knew much of the great Outassete (Ostenaco), the
 Generation 2 (con't)
"I knew much of the great Outassete (Ostenaco), the
warrior and orator of the Cherokee. He was always the
guest of my father on his journeys to and from
Williamsburg. I was in his camp when he made his great
farewell oration to his people the evening before he
departed for England. The moon was in full splendour, and
to her he seemed to address himself in his prayers for his
own safety on the voyage and that of his people during his
absence. His sounding voice, distinct articulation,
animated action, and the solemn silence of his people at
their several fires, filled me with awe and veneration,
although I did not understand a single word he uttered."[8]
In May 1762, Timberlake, Sumter, and three distinguished Cherokee
leaders, including Ostenaco, departed for London.[9]
Arriving in early June, the Cherokee were an immediate attraction,
drawing crowds all over the city. The poet Oliver Goldsmith waited for
three hours to meet the Cherokee, and offered a gift to Ostenaco.[10] They sat for Sir Joshua
Reynolds to take their
portraits,[11] and they met personally with King George III.
[12] The Cherokee returned to North America with
Sergeant Sumter on about 25 August 1762.[13]
During the American Revolution
During the Second Cherokee War, part of the American Revolution, Ostenaco was the chief war
leader of the
Cherokee Lower Towns in western South Carolina/northeast Georgia, and in 1776 led their attack
against the
Province of Georgia. After the destruction of the Lower Towns in the retaliation which followed,
Ostenaco led his
people west. The majority resettled in what is now North Georgia, with Ustanali as their chief town,
but some
followed him into the Chickamauga Wars (1776-1794) with Dragging Canoe, and settled with him
in the
Chickamauga (now Chattanooga, Tennessee) region at the town of Ultiwa (Ooltewah).
He died at the home of his grandson, Richard Timberlake (son of Henry Timberlake and
Ostenaco's daughter), atUltiwa in 1780.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Henry Timberlake (1730 or 1735 - September 30, 1765) was a colonial Anglo-American officer,
journalist, and cartographer. He was born in Virginia and died in England. He is best known for his
work as an emissary from the British colonies to the Overhill Cherokee during the 1761-1762
Timberlake Expedition.

Timberlake's account of his journeys to the Cherokee, published as his memoirs in 1765, became
a primary source for later studies of their eighteenth-century culture. His detailed descriptions of
Cherokee villages, townhouses, weapons, and tools have helped historians and anthropologists
identify Cherokee structures and cultural objects uncovered at modern archaeological excavation
sites throughout the southern Appalachian region.[1] During the Tellico Archaeological Project,
which included a series of salvage excavations conducted in the Little Tennessee River basin in
the 1970s, archaeologists used Timberlake's Draught of the Cherokee Country to help locate
important Overhill village sites.[2

Henry Timberlake was born in Hanover County, Virginia to Francis and Sarah Austin
Timberlake.[3] The Dictionary of American Biography states that Timberlake was born in 1730,
though Timberlake's age on his marriage license implies that he was born in 1735.[3] Timberlake
was a third-generation American; his grandfather had emigrated from England.[3] Although he
inherited a small fortune when his father died, Timberlake still had to support himself, and sought a
military career.[4] In 1756, at the outset of the French and Indian War, he joined a Virginia militia
company known as the "Patriot Blues." It had embarked on a campaign to expel French and Native
 Generation 3 (con't)
company known as the "Patriot Blues." It had embarked on a campaign to expel French and Native
American raiders from the western part of the colony. Shortly thereafter, he applied for a
commission in the Virginia regiment-then commanded by George Washington-but was denied due
to a lack of vacancies.[5]

In 1758, Timberlake successfully applied for a commission in Colonel William Byrd's recently
formed 2nd Virginia Regiment. Commissioned as an Ensign,[6] Timberlake accompanied the
regiment on its march to Fort Duquesne, but illness kept him from proceeding. In 1759, he took
part in several minor operations in the present-day Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area, mostly
overseeing the construction of defensive works.[7]

In 1760, British relations with the Cherokee, which had been moderately friendly for several
decades, grew sour after several Cherokee chiefs were imprisoned and killed in South Carolina. In
early 1760, the Cherokee laid siege to Fort Loudoun, a remote outpost in what is now Tennessee.
The garrison held out until August of that year, but was forced to surrender due to lack of
provisions. A relief column under Archibald Montgomerie failed to reach the fort after burning the
Cherokee Lower Towns and being stopped at the Battle of Echoee. In spite of the garrison leaving
the fort under a flag of truce, the Cherokee killed 22 of its members on their march home in
retaliation for the colonists' earlier killing of 22 Cherokee held as prisoners at Fort Prince George
(South Carolina).

In 1761, Jeffrey Amherst, the British commander in North America, responded with a larger
invasion force, sending James Grant against the Middle Towns[8] and sending Byrd to threaten the
Overhill towns.[1][9]

While Byrd proceeded to destroy the Cherokee Middle towns in North Carolina, he dispatched
Colonel Adam Stephen into the Holston River valley to attack the Overhill towns. Timberlake
accompanied Stephen to Long Island of the Holston (in modern-day Sullivan County, Tennessee),
where they began building a base known as "Fort Robinson", and made preparations for a march
south.[10]

On November 19, 1761, as Fort Robinson was nearing completion, a 400-man Cherokee force led
by Chief Kanagatucko (or "Old Hop") arrived at the camp and asked for peace, which was
immediately granted by Col. Stephen. Kanagatucko asked for an officer to accompany him to the
Overhill towns as proof that hostilities had ended. Stephen was reluctant to allow it, but granted the
request when Timberlake volunteered.[11] Timberlake was accompanied by Sergeant Thomas
Sumter, an interpreter named John McCormack, and an unnamed servant. The group purchased a
canoe and ten days' worth of provisions with money Sumter had borrowed. The plan was to follow
the Holston River to its confluence with the French Broad River, and then proceed to the Little
Tennessee River, where the Overhill towns were situated.[12]

Timberlake's party left Long Island on November 28, 1761. The Holston River's unusually low
water levels almost immediately stalled the journey, as the party was forced to drag their canoe
over exposed shoals and sandbars. The party ran out of provisions after several days, but
McCormack managed to shoot a bear, supplying them with several days' worth of meat. Around
December 7, the party explored a stalactite-filled cave situated approximately 50 feet above the
river. Timberlake described an incident in which Sumter swam nearly a half-mile in the
near-freezing river waters to retrieve their canoe, which had somehow drifted away while they were
exploring the cave.[13]

On December 13, the expedition reached a series of treacherous cascades that Timberlake called
"Great Falls." The party spent a whole day carefully maneuvering their way down the cascades
only to find the Holston frozen over immediately downstream. The ice slowed the expedition's
progress, but rains on the night of December 14 thawed the ice, and the party passed through the
mouth of the Holston (in modern Knoxville) into what is now the Tennessee River on December
15.[14]

The deeper waters of the Tennessee River allowed the Timberlake expedition to proceed much
more quickly. A hunting party led by the Cherokee chief Slave Catcher met the Timberlake
expedition near the mouth of the Little Tennessee River, and supplied the weary expedition with
 Generation 3 (con't)
expedition near the mouth of the Little Tennessee River, and supplied the weary expedition with
provisions of "dried venison, homminy, and boiled corn."[15] The following day, Slave Catcher
guided the expedition by canoe up the Little Tennessee, although the Timberlake party struggled to
keep up. Timberlake recalled, "my hands were so galled, that the blood trickled from them, and
when we set out the next morning I was scarce able to handle a pole."[15] The Timberlake party
arrived in the Overhill town of Tomotley on December 20, where they were greeted by the town's
head man, Chief Ostenaco.[16]

After spending several days in Tomotley as guests of Ostenaco, Timberlake and McCormack
proceeded to the Overhill mother town of Chota, where a number of chiefs had gathered in the
town's large councilhouse.[17] Ostenaco gave a speech and ceremoniously buried a hatchet in the
ground, symbolizing a state of peace between the English and the Cherokee. Afterward,
Timberlake partook in a peace ceremony in which he smoked several ceremonial pipes with the
gathered chiefs, a practice Timberlake personally found "very disagreeable," but participated in
without openly complaining.[18]

Timberlake and Ostenaco continued southward to Citico, where Timberlake was greeted by a
ceremonial dance involving some 400 Cherokee.[19] Timberlake recalled that the dancers were
"painted all over in a hideous manner" and that they "danced in a very uncommon figure."[20] The
town's chief, Cheulah, presented Timberlake with a string of beads and held another pipe-smoking
ceremony. The non-stop pipe smoking made Timberlake so sick that he "could not stir for several
hours."[21] The following day, Timberlake and Ostenaco traveled to Chilhowee, the second
southernmost of the Overhill towns on Timberlake's map, where the town's chief, Yachtino, held a
peace procession similar to that at Citico.[21]

Return to Virginia[edit]
His assignment largely completed, Timberlake returned to Tomotley with Ostenaco on January 2,
1762. He spent the next few weeks studying Cherokee habits and making notes for his map of the
Overhill country. At the end of January, rumors began trickling in from Cherokee scouts of renewed
hostilities with rival tribes to the north. Although the rumors turned out to be based on a
misunderstanding, Timberlake grew anxious and begged Ostenaco to guide him back to Virginia.
Ostenaco reluctantly agreed, and the party set out on March 10, 1762. Just before departure,
Timberlake witnessed the ceremonial return of a war party led by Chief Willinawaw. The party sang
"the war-song" and planted a scalp-filled pole next to the councilhouse door.[22]

The Timberlake party had decided to make the return trip overland, having purchased horses from
the Cherokee. Ostenaco, accompanied by several hundred Cherokee warriors, guided the
Timberlake group northward across what is now known as the Great Indian Warpath, which follows
the western base of the Appalachian Mountains. On March 11, the party arrived at the abandoned
village of Elajoy along Little River in what is now Maryville, Tennessee, and crossed the French
Broad River the following day. A week later, they reached Fort Robinson, which the Stephen
garrison had abandoned but stashed a large supply of flour. The expedition left Long Island on
March 22, continuing northward to an army camp where Timberlake had left some belongings. He
was deeply disappointed to find the trunk had been looted and most of his goods had been stolen.
The party finally reached Williamsburg, Virginia in early April.[23]

While in Williamsburg, Timberlake and Ostenaco attended a dinner party at William & Mary
College; that evening Ostenaco said he would like to meet the king of England. Although he feared
the trip would break him financially, Timberlake agreed to arrange such a trip and meeting for him.
In May 1762, Timberlake, Sumter, and three distinguished Cherokee leaders, including Ostenaco,
departed for London.[24][25]

Arriving in early June, the Cherokee chiefs were an immediate attraction, drawing crowds all over
the city. The poet Oliver Goldsmith waited for three hours to meet the Cherokee, and offered a gift
to Ostenaco.[26] They sat for Sir Joshua Reynolds to paint their portraits,[27] and they met
personally with King George III.[28] The Cherokee completed their return voyage to North America
with Sergeant Sumter on about August 25, 1762.[29] Timberlake remained in England dealing with
some financial difficulties. He was appointed by Jeffrey Amherst, promoted to Crown Governor of
Virginia, as a Lieutenant in the "42nd or Royal Highland Regiment of foot." His increased pay from
this commission enabled Timberlake to pay for his return voyage to Virginia in March 1763.[30]
 Generation 3 (con't)

Having reached Virginia, Timberlake set out for New York to meet with Amherst to receive his
commission. Not long afterward, he received notice that he was among a number of officers to be
reduced to half pay. Having learned this, he left the militia and returned home to Virginia to petition
the General Assembly to compensate him for his expenses for the journey , but was denied.[31]

In the summer of 1764, five Cherokee visited Timberlake, seeking an audience with the governor of
Virginia and requesting passage to London. The Cherokee wished to appeal to King George to
enforce the Proclamation Line of 1763, which restricted colonists to east of the Appalachians, due
to continuing encroachment by white settlers on Cherokee land. The governor denied their request,
but Timberlake agreed to help them. He accompanied three Cherokee to London in the fall of
1764. Not long after their arrival, the benefactor of the trip fell ill and died. Lord Halifax refused to
grant the Cherokee an audience, as the trip was unauthorized. Timberlake was accused of
attempting to profit off the public attention given to the Cherokee. The government sent the
Cherokee back to North America in March 1765. Shortly after their departure, Timberlake was
arrested for failing to pay the debt for the last bill for lodging of himself and the Cherokee. He likely
wrote his Memoirs while incarcerated.[32]

Family[edit]
Timberlake had one child, a son, Richard Timberlake, by one of Ostenaco's daughters,[33]
Sakinney.[34] In his old age, Timberlake's friend Ostenaco lived in retirement with his grandson,
Richard.[35]

Legacy[edit]
Timberlake's primary legacy is the journal he kept while living with the Cherokee. The volume was
published in 1765, likely following Timberlake's death in September of that year. The journal is of
importance both as an ethnological study, as it contains detailed descriptions of various facets of
Cherokee society, and as a historical account, as it gives insight into Cherokee political
decision-making and the tribe's early reactions to the encroaching European colonists.[36]

Along with Cherokee methods of warfare, Timberlake described their agricultural and hunting
customs, religious beliefs, birth and death rites, and marital habits.[37] He described Cherokee
government as a "mixed aristocracy and democracy," with chiefs chosen on the basis of merit.[38]
he also described Cherokee methods for building canoes and dwellings, and the general size and
form of Cherokee summer and winter houses.[39] Timberlake's description of the Cherokee
councilhouse (the central structure in a typical Cherokee village) has aided archaeologists in the
location of such structures at modern excavation sites.[40]

Timberlake's map, entitled A Draught of the Cherokee Country, accompanied the journal. On it he
located all the Cherokee villages on the lower Little Tennessee River and provided important
demographic information about village sizes, populations, and leaders. Modern studies have
generally confirmed that Timberlake's map was remarkably accurate. The journal, simply entitled
Memoirs, and his map of the Overhill Cherokee country have been reprinted several times.[1]
Timberlake's Memoirs remains one of the best contemporary accounts of the 18th-century
Cherokee.[41]
