I have come across a news article from wayyy back in my Dads' old papers...the best I can figure is it is a folklore about how the Ocmulgee may have got its red color. It tells a story of Spotted Elk and a pioneer family named Carling. How Spotted Elks tribe killed the family, along with Spotted Elk on the banks of the Ocmulgee. Can anyone shed any light on the origin of this story? |
