    Ain’t too late at all. That’s a long heritage. Do you know where your 1834 family settled? Were any at San Jacinto? www.sanjacinto-museum.org/Discover/The_Battle/Veteran_Bios/

    I will say that anytime someone posts historical videos on a disputed event or topic then they have the responsibility to search out both or all sides before buying into only one source whether it be the traditional mainstream narrative or a revised narrative. Some history that has been made more accurate by the availability of more information includes: The Battle of Midway, The battle of Shanghai during the second Sino-Japanese conflict, The German - Soviet front following Operation Barbarossa and that doesn't begin to cover the influx of new sources that change the narrative. Some things will always remain disputed for lack of information available. Other revised narratives are just willfully misleading and counting on an audience without the initiative to question, research and verify what they say and what they source or hear out someone who has. Texas history seems to be a magnet for this. If a video just mindlessly repeats one side of a disputed topic of history then that poster doesn't know his subject. Gullible posters will own the gullible audience and there will always be that.

    Excellent points. It’s always important to dig deeper and look at a topic from multiple angles if possible.

    Thanks for recording all of this. You did a really good job of sharing lots of cultural aspects of our ancestors. I appreciate the respectful tone. Sometimes I can be very critical of Texas historians but your work is very objective. A couple things. I'm Natchitoches Indian you did mispronounce our name but not as bad as many have it's says (Naka-dish) phonetically. Also most Caddo European contact in Louisiana was early 1700s not 1800s other than that this is an awesome presentation. Thank you. I'll sub.

    Thank you. I have a lot to learn and your comments are very helpful. This episode is supposed to be a general introduction. The plan is to move forward and focus on the Caddo history in the earlier centuries in greater detail. Any recommendations or advice is welcome. Some Texas historians have been guilty of treating the Caddo as something that history happened to instead of being active participants. I want to try to approach it differently.

    @@texashistorylessons one thing I learned that is pretty foundational is that Caddo are one of the original tribes that had a natural connection to the medicine via diffusion. Even that El Camino Real is our old trail to go to south Texas to harvest medicine. We got along better than most with the Spanish too so we shared that trail with them and it became the El Camino Real. It's important to look at the geography of this area as well. Even the Bidai here in Huntsville were part of the Caddoan Confederacy. Hasinai, Bidai, Adai, Kaddohadoche, Nacogdoche, Natchitoches etc.. It makes perfect sense to me cause we never left, my fam are ones that blended in and hid in plain sight.
