GEDCOM Note

Fort Argyle had several Lieutenants who were capable of taking command of the fort in the Captain's absence. The most colorful of these was Moses Nunez Rivers. Moses was a Portuguese Jew, who worked for a while as a fur and deerskin trader among the Tuckabatchees-an Upper Creek tribe in Alabama. Oglethorpe trusted Nunez and sent him to Virginia to enlist Ranger recruits during King George's War. Lieutenant Nunez became fluent in the southeastern Native American languages and became invaluable as an interpreter at important treaty talks.
