Profiles of Martin’s Station (1775): “Nancy Ward”
1775 was a tumultuous time for all living on the western frontier of Virginia. Native Americans were in a constant struggle between the demands of a changing world and protecting their old ways. Colonists wrestled with liberty and loyalty. But one thing remained common for all: the instinct for survival. We cannot…we must not ignore history. Ranger Jackie Fischer of Historic Martin’s Station in Ewing, VA, explores of the collision of cultures leading up to the Cherokee War of 1776. She delivers a stirring first-person interpretation of Nancy Ward, the “Beloved Woman of the Cherokee.”
