Description
English: Indian Fights historical marker in front of the Berrien County Courthouse in Nashville, GA

Historical marker reads:

Indian Fights

In the summer of 1836, a company of militia
under Capt. Levi J. Knight of near Ray City
was sent to protect the settlers from maraud-
ing Indians on their way to join the Semi-
noles in Florida. When a party of Indians
plundered the plantation of William Parker,
near Milltown, the militia pursued them N.E.
across the county overtaking them near
Gaskins Pond not far from the Alapaha River.
Several were killed and some injured as the
Inians fled across the river. A few days later
the militia encountered more Indians at
Brush Creek and ran them off. That was
the last real battle with the Indians in this
section.
