It's interesting because I've got a book published in the 1880's with hundred's of photographs from the Civil War. What is interesting, in the "veterans" section, there is a large plate showing "Cherokee Confederate Veterans" meeting under a very conspicuous "Bonny Blue Cross", Lee's flag.

Yes, the Cherokees did unite behind the Confederacy, because they had no trust at all of the Federal government and a special animosity toward Andrew Jackson.
