There are two Pathkillers mixed up here. From http://betty-shirley.com/chief_pathfinder.htm:
Both men have the same name but there are two different burial locations. Chief Pathkiller had a daughter by the name of Nancy Ann "Polly" Pathkiller who is rumored to have run-off with a white solider by the name of Robert A. / Alec Moore. Both Colonel Pathkiller and Chief Pathkiller lived at St Clair, AL.
A book entitled, "History of Hamilton Co. TN, Vol. 1, page 44" by Zella Armstrong" says that Chief Pathkiller was Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation on January 8, 1827 when he died. Assistant Chief Broom, born 1796, was secretary of the Council in 1818 and treasurer succeeded Pathkiller on January 8, 1827. In the History of St. Clair, Alabama, page 30" states, "Chief Pathkiller died January 8, 1827". It says that Chief Pathkiller was Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation on January 8, 1827 when he died. Assistant Chief Broom, born 1796, was secretary of the Council in 1818 and treasurer succeeded Pathkiller on January 8, 1827.
Chief Pathkiller is presumed to have been married to a full-blood Cherokee woman named Peggy. In the "Records of St. Clair County, Alabama, page 18", it says, "Peggy Pathkiller's settlement of estate, Oct. 31, 1833 was paid to her heirs: $455 to daughter Nancy, $375 to Nelly, $450 to Crying Snake. To Quata and George Cammell, $1,200; to Eustace $300, to Jenny $1188.60; to Qualocoo and Beaver Tail $100 and to Charqahyooca and Richard Rarliff $300."
Colonel Pathkiller is buried at the New Echota Cemetery in New Echota, Georgia. A monument of Chief Pathkiller stands today at the intersection of the Georgia and Tennesee state lines at Calhune, Georgia.
