THE EARLY YEARS (1763 - CIRCA 1910'S).
The Cherokee Nation Village, founded on September 24, 2009, in Harvey's Lake, PA, has experienced huge changes through the years.
In the 1600’s and 1700’s there was a great possibility that American Indians lived in the area.
English settlers first came to The Wyoming Valley in 1763, and reached Harvey's Lake as early as 1781.
With more settlers moving to the Harvey's Lake area, the lake eventually became an inland resort as early as the 1880's.
Settlers in the Outlet section of Harvey's Lake lived and worked on the part of the land that would later become The Cherokee Nation Village.
In 1817 Dallas Township was created out of Plymouth Township, and Harvey's Lake and the grounds of The Cherokee Nation Village were included within the Dallas Township boundaries.
Matthias Hollenback, born in Lancaster County in 1743, and moved to the Wyoming Valley in February 1770, was once known as the wealthiest man in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
Hollenback once owned huge amounts of land between the Lehigh River and Elmira, and also owned land at the Harvey's Lake area.
Upon his death the lands were passed down to his only son, George Hollenback, who inherited his father's land, and planned to expand his father's timbering enterprises at the lake.
George Hollenback began to purchase more and more land, and the most important tact of land was the William Sims Tact, which was the only water power source at the lake for mill operation.
On March 1, 1852 400 acres of land were purchased further down Harvey's Creek, and on May 9, 1852 another 60 acres were purchased along the Harvey's Creek region, one which possibly could have contained the lands of The Cherokee Nation Village.
In the mid 1800’s trees that were on that land were cleared and the field that was created was used to grow all sorts of crops, such as potatoes.
In 1841 Lake Township was created out of Lehman, Monroe, and Dallas Townships.
By 1842 there were sufficient settlers in the township to support a school.
The first school was taught by Jonathan Williams at the home of Otis Allen during the winters of 1842-1843 and 1843-1844.
A School House was built on the farm of Henry Ide in 1844.
These schools were near the Loyalville Area (which is less than 2 miles from The Cherokee Nation Village).
In 1849 a School House was built near-by to serve the growing surrounding community, there also is a chance that children from the Outlet School House played on this land in the 1800's.
Jonathan Williams also taught at the Outlet School House.
The School house served grades 1 through 8.
Grist mills, saw mills, planning mills, a church and even a post office were built around the Outlet area, and one of the grist mills that was built in the Outlet section of Harvey's Lake was Benjamin Harvey's grist mill, (Benjamin Harvey (1722-1795) was an English settler who discovered Harvey's Lake in 1781 after being captured from his home in Plymouth, Pennsylvania in the fall of 1780, dragged to Ft.
Niagara, New York, and than released in the Spring of 1781 only to stumble upon Harvey's Lake on his search for a way home to Plymouth).
In the 1870’s – 1880’s a stone wall was built to serve as a property marker, and a logging trail, which ran from Harvey's Creek, through the wilderness, up into the Crane estate, down the hill (which in above the site of The Cherokee Nation Village) and through the massive stone wall that was built, across the creek (eventually known as Orbin Creek, than Oneonta Creek) and then into the field where the logs would be cut up, and than sold to merchants, and others interested in the wood to further develop the Harvey's Lake area.
Not much is known about what happened in the 1890's – 1910's, but it is possible that a logging house was built on the hill along the creek during this time because there have been artifacts found on the land along the logging trail, including an electrical outlet, flooring tiles, bricks, cribbing, glass bottles, plaster pieces, horse shoes and other objects.

.
THE CRANE YEARS : (CIRCA 1920'S - 1998).
In the 1920’s the area was again cleared of any trees that were in the way of farming, and again used to grow crops, especially in the heart of the Great Depression in the 1930’s.
Potatoes were again the main crop grown on the land, horses and other livestock were raised on the land, and horse shoes have been found on the land.
In the 1930’s the land was purchased by the Crane family, and in the mid 1930's ancestors of the Lee family (the family who live across the street from The Cherokee Nation Village) were racing through the fields in an old car and as they were in the woods just North of the field, they crashed into what is believed to be a tree, and the entire car was left there for no less than 70 years until it was cleared in the early 2000's when the Orbin family built their estate on the land.
Meeker Outlet Rd.
(the road that The Cherokee Nation Village is located off of) was paved in the 1930's.
A barn (which was located in the field by the future site of The Cherokee Nation Village, by Meeker Outlet Road) burned down when someone flicked a cigarette at it.
Not much is known about what happened in the 1940's, but during the 1940’s the land that is now The Cherokee Nation Village was let go and uncared for, and trees grew up in the field that was where The Cherokee Nation Village is now.
Not much is known about what happened in the 1950's – 1970's, and it is believed that not much happened except for that trees along Meeker Outlet Road grew up, creating a curtain of wilderness separating the field from the road.
On July 6, 1984 at 6:45 p.m.
a severe 75 mile per hour down burst led into a severe tornado.
The tornado touched down in Sweet Valley, lifted up over trees, touched down in the field right next to the future site of The Cherokee Nation Village, picked up again just missing the small white schoolhouse that was built in 1849, then went to the Sunset area of Harvey's Lake, several houses and other buildings were blown off of their foundations resulting in $250,000 in damages..
.
THE ORBIN YEARS (1998-PRESENT).
In 1998 four acres of the land from the Crane estate were passed down to the Orbin family.
The field and woods were split in two in 2000 when the Orbin family's driveway was built, and tests were conducted to see where the best place to put the Orbin family's house and septic system would be.
During the clearing on the Driveway, tons of useless derbis, such as stumps, leaves/weeds and branches/sticks were tossed to the side and onto the spot where The Cherokee Nation Village is currently standing.
The Orbin's house arrived in the area in April of 2003.
As a young boy, Brian Orbin (the founder of The Cherokee Nation Village) always loved to play in the woods around his house, so it was only natural to build The Cherokee Nation Village in the spot that he always loved to be.
On September 24, 2009 The Cherokee Nation Village was founded.
Orgianlly, The Cherokee Nation Village was called ''The Teepees'' until 2012.
In the later half of 2012, the name The Cherokee Nation Village was adopted as the official name of the village because there had been no official name.
The name ''The Teepees'' was the first thing that came to Brian Orbin's mind when he thought of what to call his little village in the woods because at the time all there was were a few small squat-in teepees.
But as The Great Wall (the wooden wall that separated the two remaining teepees from the rest of the woods) came crashing down, and the village was focused on as a whole, not just as that little area inside the wall, was suddenly a huge change upon The Teepees, including the change in the name..
.
THE FOUNDING YEARS : (SEPTEMBER 2009- JUNE 2011).
For the remaining quarter of 2009, all of 2010 a decent part of 2011 The Teepees was looked at as a place to go and 'hangout' in the woods, so in other words not much action was taken to doing work, so development was slow and not many changes happened from year to year, but in April of 2012 the scene had changed, for the first time the leaves that were on the ground were raked away, massive walls were constructed, the stone walls that were there were built up, and the scene changed for Brian Orbin, from a kid's hangout to a serious working area, he now only came to The Teepees to be productive, thus meaning more work and hours of work were put into The Teepees and development than sky-rocketed.
.
.
THE GOLDEN ERA : (NOVEMBER 2012 - PRESENT).
In August of 2011 news of a terrible Hurricane known as Hurricane Irene was heading straight to Northeastern Pennsylvania, and with this news Brian Orbin headed down to The Teepees and fastened everything down to protect them from the storm, and several pictures were taken.
Since this precaution was taken The Teepees survived.
Hurricane Irene hit The Cherokee Nation Village on August 28, 2011.
Orbin Creek (later known as Oneonta Creek) was about 2 1/2 feet over its banks and flooded the whole creek basin until mid September, 2011.
The creek, which at its highest flood stage in recorded teepee history reached an amazing 3 feet 4 inches.
The flood was caused mainly by three factors, the first was that up to that point of the year Pennsylvania had seen a very rainy year so far, receiving 70 inches of precipitation in only 8 months.
The second reason was that a huge tree had fallen over the creek, and any debris that fell into the creek, were blocked up against the tree, and the raging creek waters were backed up against the tree.
Lastly, the third most likely factor is that a pond upstream had flown over its banks and a dam on it had busted, causing a "tsunami" of water to wash down raidly and right into The Cherokee Nation Village.
On October 29, 2011 The Teepees got 9 inches on snowfall overnight (which at the time, was unheard of until 2014).
Since 2011 Coinboy1998 has been filming YouTube videos at The Cherokee Nation Village, and the village's fame was on the rise.
The earliest records indicate that the famous 'Great Wall' was first under construction as early as April, 2012.
Although the idea to build a massive wall dates back to 2010, the 'Great Wall' itself could not be built until 2012 because Brian Orbin could not figure out a way to built it and for it to be able to support itself.
Although the village was let go and uncared for in September and October of 2012, the Reconstruction Period (which lasted from November 3, 2012 - November 10, 2012) brought The Cherokee Nation Village "back to life" and 29 hours of work that it took to complete it made The Cherokee Nation Village a wonderful place to be again.
The main reason that The Cherokee Nation Village was in such bad shape at the start of November 2012 was mainly because of Hurricane Sandy, hitting The Cherokee Nation Village on October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy was the second Hurricane to hit The Cherokee Nation Village.
Also unlike in 2011 where the teepees at The Cherokee Nation Village were fastened down to be protected from the storm, this time they were not, only Brian and Sarah Orbin's teepee, a few wooden walls, and stone walls survived.
The earliest records indicate that the famous mulch trail started on November 12, 2012.
The 1st bonfire to be held at The Cherokee Nation Village was held on May 10, 2013, and several have been held after as well.
The Bonfire season usually last from early May to early November.
The bonfires and parties are always glamorous, with the blasting music, glorious lights, moonlight dancing on Oneonta Beach and warm summer nights.
In December, 2009, Herbert Lee was infamously murdered by Cody Lee less than 150 yards from the now Haunted Bamboo Forest.
Once in 2011 and several times in 2012 and 2013 there have been many mysterious voices coming from the bamboo forest area and it is believed that Herbert Lee's spirit is still lingering around the dense "jungle" and that is why there are mysterious hauntings.
Because of the hauntings at The Bamboo Forest, the first settlement at The Bamboo District, called Stoney Beach, was abandoned in July, 2012 and the bamboo quickly grew up over the area.
The Bamboo Forest was dedicated as an official district on October 19, 2013 at The Cherokee Nation Village's 1st Annual Halloween Party, and is now part of The Cherokee Nation Village.
The Oneonta District holds an annual Halloween Party at The Cherokee Nation Village mainly because of the hauntings at The Bamboo Forest, and The Haunted Woods-Trail emphasizes the Hauntings there.
The Cherokee Nation Village's 1st Annual Halloween Party was held on October 19, 2013.
The most likely date for The Cherokee Nation Village's 2nd Annual Halloween Party is October 18, 2014, and the most likely date for The Cherokee Nation Village's 3rd Annual Halloween Party is October 17, 2015.
Future Parties are planned for 2014, 2015 and beyond, but no one knows for sure what the exact dates will be.
Though it may seen like its time to party, its not.
Now more than ever is the time to be on gard.
Several factors threaten the existence of The Cherokee Nation Village, wind rain, floods, fires, and many other factors! So for today were going to party like there's no tomorrow, because tomorrow it may be all over!
