            Born:Spring Place, February 1765 
Died:Near Vann's Ferry, February 21, 1809 ~ Near where i live

Brutal, violent, intemperate. These are the most common words used in regard to James Vann, and for good reason. But James Vann made significant changes to the Cherokee world during his life and a lasting change in his death. 

During the 1790s, James Vann became a Cherokee Indian leader and wealthy businessman. He established the largest and most prosperous plantation in the Cherokee Nation, covering 1,000 acres of what is now Murray County. In 1804 he completed construction of a beautiful 2 ½-story brick home that was the most elegant in the Cherokee Nation. After Vann was murdered in 1809, his son Joseph inherited the mansion and plantation. Joseph was also a Cherokee leader and became even more wealthy than his father.
