In Response To: Re: Price's Army retreat in IT ()

The modern Stilwell article, describing the Flint District Court House, provides some local confirming evidence that a recognized main road ran from Evansville, Arkansas west to the Flint Court House of the Cherokee Nation. One paragraph states:

"The location of the Flint courthouse and the town of Mays was on the banks of the Sallisaw Creek in Section 10, T-15-N, R-25-E, of what is now Adair County. It was located on the "Old Military Road" from Fort Smith, Arkansas to Fort Gibson, I.T. There was also another road up the Sallisaw Creek to Evansville, Arkansas."

The Evansville-Flint road continued on southwest past Flint C.H. down Sallisaw Creek to Bunch, located in the southwest corner of Flint District. MG Price lost his personal carriage, apparently just below Bunch as he tried to pass thru the rough canyon narrows of Sallisaw Creek near the Flint District border. Perhaps the road at the border of the District was not maintained.
