Last To Leave - Steve Foreman, (the Great Uncle of Cherokee Artist Ron Mitchell), worked as a missionary among his people during the turmoil of the removal period when the Cherokees were uprooted from their lands and forced to migrate west. In 1838 he was briefly imprisoned over the removal issue, and in 1839 he led the last group to Indian Territory. After organizing the Cherokee Nation’s school system he became its first superintendent. In 1844 he was elected to the Supreme Court of the Cherokee and was tribal executive councilor from 1847 to 1855. Steve worked as a missionary in Texas during the Civil War. Returning to Indian Territory after the war, he started “The Church in the Woods”, and continued his religious activities until his death in 1881.
