SC counted 67 men in three Shawnee towns
in the [SC] census of 1715 three [Shawnee] towns with 67 men, and 233 souls.3 In 1760 there were 100 Shawnee men in the bands among the Creeks.4 In 1761 the united Shawnee on Tallapoosa River were estimated to have 30 hunters,5 but Marbury (1792) raises this to 60 (p. 436). Hawkins does not give any figures, and the name Shawnee does not occur in the census list of 1832, but we find a town called "Kiamulgatown" which appears elsewhere coupled with the Shawnee and may have been occupied by them. It had a population of 175."
