The Creek Indian War occurred during the war of 1812, so the only reason anyone knows about is the old Davy Crockett episodes on Walt Disney. It was essentially kicked off by a massacre of the garrison at Fort Mims AL and its most memorable engagement was Horseshoe Bend where Sam Houston and Davy Crockett distinguished themselves. One of the reasons Andrew Jackson was ordered to defend New Orleans was that he had forces relatively nearby.
