Carolina builds a fort in the overhills

Limited edition collector’s print. 250 print edition

Winter, 1757. Captain Postell's Company of construction workers dig the ramparts and battlements for the outworks of the new fort located near Chota, the capitol of the Cherokee nation. The fort's engineer William DeBrahm left the site on Christmas Day, 1756 leaving Captain Raymond Demere to complete the construction on his own.  

Prior to his leaving, however, DeBrahm had discharged the construction troops (over whom he had no authority), leading to a great deal of unrest and one Courts Martial.
