Oconee

The Oconee were a Native town community associated with the rivers of central Georgia. In the early colonial period they lived along the Oconee River, before moving west toward the Chattahoochee after the Yamasee War of 1715. Some later went south into Florida, where the town of Cuscowilla grew on the Alachua plains after 1750. These migrations helped shape the communities that came to be known as Seminole.
