About Us

All Things Cherokee was created by Christina Berry in March, 1998. It started as a personal genealogy website, with photos, family stories, and a links page. Not surprisingly, it was the links page which garnered the most attention and traffic. Now, over a decade later the site has grown into the best resource for Cherokee genealogy on the web.

The site has gone through a number of changes, and grown in some interesting directions (most recently with the addition of the Art Gallery), but always at the core is a heart-felt interest in providing helpful and interesting information about Cherokee history, culture, and genealogy.

Christina Berry - Owner/Operator

I am a tribal citizen of the Cherokee Nation, a member of the Cherokee Artists Association, and a charter member of the First Families of the Cherokee Nation. I was born in Oklahoma, but moved with my family to Texas when I was very young. Always a history buff, I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a BA in history. I am a mixed-blood with ancestors from all over Europe and the US -- descended from Old Hop (Kana Gatoga) on one side and Robert the Bruce on the other.

When I'm not working on All Things Cherokee, I keep busy with photography, beadwork, and a massive home renovation project.
