William Weatherford Memorial Park, Little River, Baldwin County, Alabama

In June of 2002, I, Leon  Weekley, made a trip to the William Weatherford Memorial Park. 
 It is located in Little River, Alabama at Brickyard Lake.  This is a one-acre county 
park, which was dedicated on December 18, 1991 to the William Weatherford Red Eagle 
grave site.  William is most remembered for his involvement he had with the tragedy at 
Ft. Mims on August 30, 1813.  There are only two graves at this location, that of 
Red Eagle and his mother, Creek Nation Princess Sehoy (III) Tate Weatherford.  
The inscriptions on their tombstones say:

William Weatherford
Red Eagle
1765-1824

Sehoy Tate Weatherford
Creek Nation Princess
Wind Clan - Mother of
William Weatherford
