Red Shoes
Edit ProfileChoctaw chief Muskogean leader
Career
He primarily lived in modern Alabama but his influence extended well into modern Mississippi. Since lineage among the Muskogee was traced matrilineally, Red Shoes, like his mother, was part of the Wind Clan. However, some sources say that Red Shoes was the son of Sehoy"s second husband Red Shoes (Choctaw chief).
Red Shoes died about 1783.
Membership
However, since Red Shoes"s own children were members of their mother"s clan, Alexander was Red Shoes"s heir.
