In the context of writing about Thomas Jefferson and Elizabeth Moore Walker, I did some reading about the Fort Stanwix conference of 1768 that John Walker attended as secretary for the Virginia delegation headed by his father, Dr. Thomas Walker. Among the works I found helpful (some old some new and in no particular order) were: Woody Holton, “The Ohio Indians and the Coming of the American Revolution in Virginia,” Journal of Southern History 60 (1994): 457-461 Peter Onuf, “Toward Federalism: Virginia, Congress, and the Western Lands,” WMQ, 3d ser., 34 (1977) Daniel J. Hulsebosch, “Imperia in Imperio: The Multiple Constitutions of Empire in New York, 1750-1777,” Law and History Review 16 (1998) Clarence E. Carter, “British Policy towards the American Indians in the South, 1763-8,” English Historical Review 33 (1918) Max Farrand, “The Indian Boundary Line,” American Historical Review 10 (1905) John R. Alden, John Stuart and the Southern Colonial Frontier, 1754-1775 (Ann Arbor, 1944) Jack M. Sosin, Whitehall and the Wilderness: The Middle West in British Colonial Policy (Lincoln, Neb., 1961). ============ Dr. Jon Kukla, Executive Vice-President Red Hill - The Patrick Henry National Memorial 1250 Red Hill Road Brookneal, Virginia 24528 www.redhill.org Phone 434-376-2044 or 800-514-7463 Fax 434-376-2647 > Greetings to the List. > Has any work been done on Virginia's diplomatic relationship with Indian > tribes?(Specifically the Chickasaw and Cherokee tribes) Who were the > agents > for Virginia to the Indians during the Revolution and post revolution era? > How did Virginia organize these relationships in a governmental way.
