Did anyone ever reply to you?

Have you seen his profile:
William "Red Eagle" Weatherford, Muscoke Creek

There is a lot of information there.

He was one of my ancestor's third cousin.

His father Charles Weatherford went from Virginia to Alabama to be a trader with the Creek Indians. He married Sehoy III, who was an Indian Princess. William Weatherford, also know as Red Eagle Lanochette, was their son. Red Eagle was more than half of European descent, but was fully Indian in his cultural thinking. He led the Creeks in the Battle of Horseshoe Bend and negotiated the peace with Andrew Jackson after the battle.
