Another historical site across Moccasin Bend , possibly constructed in 1805 , was the USA Federal Road , used to connect Georgia with Tennessee to the north by transiting through the Cherokee Nation . In 1838 , the Cherokee Indians were forced out of their national area by the '' ' U.S. Government ' '' . Moccasin Bend was not part of the Cherokee Nation in 1838 but was crossed by two departing parties on the Trail of Tears
