A member of our local Western Society, "Iron Eyes" who lives next door, insists that 'Sequoia' is Cherokee for 'Heap Big Tree' and he is the expert but we drove through one once and I remember 'Sequoia' being someone's name.

Sequoia is a name of an Indian tribe as well as a tree. Sequoia was the name of the Indian who, along with a trapper, invented the Cherokee alphabet. I hope this helps.

I think Sequoia was the half Cherokee who wrote the Cherokee Alphabet. Maybe he was named after a tree. Cherokee often named their children for the first thing they saw after their birth.
