[citation needed]
One source states that Stand Watie married four women: Eleanor Looney Elizabeth Fields Isabella Hicks and Sarah Caroline Bell. As part of the new treaty it required the Cherokee free their slaves. [citation needed]

The majority of the tribe opposed their action. Watie stayed out of politics for his last years and tried to rebuild his plantation. In 1839 the brothers were attacked in an assassination attempt as were other relatives active in the Treaty Party.
