Due to forced relocation in the 1800's, most Alabama Indians now live in The Big Thicket area of east Texas today, sharing the 4600 acre Alabama-Coushatta reservation with their traditional allies the Coushattas. Only 200 of the 500 People there, mostly elders, still speak the Alabama language fluently. They are a sovereign and formally recognized Nation by the federal government (1987).
