Creek Indian Chief Alexander McGillivray was buried in the backyard of the Panton House, William Panton's private residence, which also served as his company's headquarters, ‘Panton, Leslie & Company', a trading company of Scottish merchants who traded with Native Americans during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The garden and house no longer exist. A replica stands in its place. The Pensacola Historical Society placed a plaque at this location in 1935 indicating the Panton House as McGillivray's burial location.



Note: Actual burial location is in question, as some historical documents state that McGillivray's sister had his remains disinterred and reburied at Choctaw Bluff, Clarke County, Alabama.
