President Adams renegotiated the Treaty of Washington ( 1826 ) on slightly more favorable terms to the native peoples . Both treaties provided for removal west of the Mississippi ( as President Jackson would later do the Cherokee Indians on the Trail of Tears ) . Governor Troup was upset that the second treaty allowed some Creek to remain in Georgia , and began a survey to prepare to sell those remaining lands , as well threatened to call out the militia , at which point the federal government ceased protecting the Indians . All Creeks lands were seized and all Creeks removed from Georgia by 1827
