Quotes by Nancy Richmond (?)

“Appalachia, an Indian name meaning “Endless Mountains”, is well suited to the land. The Appalachians are one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world, and were at one time higher in elevation than the Himalayas are today. The territory was originally home to many of the eastern Indian tribes, including the Iroquois, the Mohicans, the Cherokee and the Shawnee.”

“Religion played a major part in the history of the Appalachian pioneers. Their way of life was characterized by a strong sense of independence and an inherent distrust of religious hierarchies. Many of their beliefs were influenced and modified by early interaction with the Shawnee and Cherokee people, as well as by the African religions of their slaves. Some of these adaptations are still in evidence in present day church services in Appalachia, including creek baptism, foot washing, chanted preaching and congregational shouting.”
