Albert,
This was very informative. Which ever subject you choose, I am sure that you will do very well. I particularly like the review of Diane Miller’s Dissertation. What peaked my interest is when you mentioned the fact that there were a few African Seminoles that were captured at one time. The fact that Africans sought out refuge with the Indian tribes was very interesting to me as well. Good Luck with your journey. I know you will do a great job.
