Biography
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cherokee-180
Unacata was Cherokee.
Unacata was born about 1754, the son of a woman known only as the sister of Doublehead. It is unknown if his father was John Watts, the trader, but unlikely as he was never known by an English name. He was the brother of John Watts, the leader of the Chickamauga Cherokee. In 1792 Governor Blount of Tennessee described him as "a good-natured pleasant fellow." [1] His date of death is unknown.
