Records of the Creek factory of the Office of Indian Trade of the Bureau of Indian Affairs
About this book
The factory for the Creek Indians was one of the two original factories established in November 1795. It was not usually called the Creek factory. Sometimes it was referred to as the Georgia factory, but it was better known by the names of its successive locations: Colerain on the St. Mary's River, 1795-97; Fort Wilkinson, 1797-1806; Ocmulgee Old Fields, 1806-09; Fort Hawkins, 1809-16; and Fort Mitchell, 1816-20. With one exception, these records were filmed in the same order as they are described in the Preliminary Inventory of the Records of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (PI 163) as entries 42 through 53. The exception, entry 43, had been previously microfilmed by the National Archives as M4, Letter Book of the Creek Trading House, 1795-1816, and the volume was not refilmed for this publication.
