Abstract:
Exploring Garbacon Creek and the Neuse River during his youth, Richard Carraway Jr. discovered various historic artifacts, including pottery, glass bottles, arrowheads, and clay pipes. On occasion, human remains would wash out of the riverbank prompting a visit from local archaeologists. Carraway would explore these sites and found arrowheads in association with human remains, leading to the assumption that the site was associated with warring Native American factions. As erosion increased, however, Carraway found evidence of wooden coffins suggesting the burials were remains of European colonists killed in the Tuscarora uprising of 1711. Since his childhood, Carraway has continued to study the site and the history of the associated Garbacon plantation.

Abstract:
Tom Blunt, was King or head Chief of the North Carolina branch of the Tuscarora tribe. He lived in the Upper Towns in Gates County, NC. He is credited for minimizing the Tuscarora War in North Carolina in 1711-1713. After the war, the NC Council recognized his faithfulness and good service and made him Chief of all Indians south of the Pamlico River. In 1717, the NC Council let the Tuscarora’s settle into a reservation north of the Roanoke River in present day Bertie County. Blunt died sometime before March 5, 1739. After his death, the Tuscarora nation petitioned the North Carolina Council to elect a new king.
