The _Cofetaláya_ were inhabiting Atala and Choctaw counties, settled
at French Camp, etc., on the old military road leading to Old Doak's
Stand; General Jackson advanced through this road, when marching south
to meet the English army.
_Pineshuk Indians_, on a branch of Pearl river, in Winston county.
_Boguechito Indians_, on stream of the same name in Neshoba county,
near Philadelphia. Some Mugulashas lived in the Boguechito district;
Wiatakali was one of the villages. "Yazoo Old Village" also stood in
Neshoba county.
_Sixtowns_ or English-Towns, a group of six villages in Smith and
Jasper counties. Adair, p. 298, mentions "seven towns that lie close
together and next to New Orleans", perhaps meaning these. The names of
the six towns were as follows: Chinokabi, Okatallia, Killis-tamaha
(kílis, in Creek: inkílisi, is _English_), Tallatown, Nashoweya,
Bishkon.
_Sukinatchi_ or "Factory Indians" settlement, in Lowndes and Kemper
counties. Allamutcha Old Town was ten miles from Sukinatchi creek.
_Yauana_, Yowanne was a palisaded town on Pascagoula river, or one of
its affluents; cf. Adair, History, 297-299. 301. He calls it remote
but considerable; it has its name from a worm, very destructive to
corn in the wet season. French maps place it on the same river, where
"Chicachae" fort stood above, and call it: "Yauana, dernier village
des Choctaws." "Yoani, on the banks of the Pasca Oocooloo
(Pascagoula)"; B. Romans, p. 86.
An old Cha'hta _Agency_ was in Oktibbeha county.
_Cobb Indians_; west of Pearl river.
_Shuqualak_ in Noxubee county.
_Chicasawhay Indians_ on river of the same name, an affluent of the
Pascagoula river; B. Romans, p. 86, states, that "the Choctaws of
Chicasahay and the Yoani on Pasca Oocooloo river" are the only Cha'hta
able to swim.
It may be collected from the above, that the main settlements of the
Northern Cha'hta were between Mobile and Big Black river, east and
west, and between 32° and 33° 30´ Lat., where their remnants reside
even nowadays.
