What is the Seminole's nickname?

I have not researched this, but my mother's side are long long time Florida natives. They told me the Florida Seminole's are one of the only tribes that never signed a peace treaty with the US, they hide in the Everglades, during the "march of tears".

If I remember my history correctly, some of them fought their way across the country and down into mexico. Can anyone here back this up?

"march of tears"

Is that anything like "cinco de mayo"?
