This sounds promising though I don't know how to access the Virginia
Historical Register or the Calender of Virginia State Papers. I am looking
for a lesser known Cherokee/Virginian expedition not the one in 1756
usually called the "Sandy Creek Expedition". As for the resources I have
checked, I have used Google, the book I already discussed, and E Lawrence
Lee's "Indian Wars in North Carolina 1663-1763" which I also have on my
bookshelf.
