- William Weatherford, also known as Lamochattee (Red Eagle) by the Creek (c. 1780 or 1781 – March 24, 1824), was a Creek (Muscogee) chief of the Upper Creek towns who led the Red Sticks' offensive in the Creek War (1813–1814) against the United States. Representative of Southeast Indian tribes who intermarried with European traders and later colonial settlers, William Weatherford was of mixed Creek, French and Scots ancestry. He was raised in the matrilineal Creek nation and achieved his power in it, through his mother's family of the prominent Wind Clan as well as his father's trading connections. After the war, he rebuilt his wealth as a slaveholding planter in lower Monroe County, Alabama. Note: Several sources state that Weatherford was born in 1765, and that IS the date recorded on his tombstone, located in Little River, Baldwin County, Alabama. Many sources state that his mother, Sehoy III, was born in 1759. Also, his siblings were born in the 1780s. It seems most likely that Weatherford's year of birth would be closer to 1780 or 1781.
