Tom Hudson
Query: I am researching the REECE line. My GGGgrandfather was Jesse REECE possibly born in VA ca 1793 he married Dicy BROWN born in Old Surry Co., NC 1790. Her birth is recorded on her death certificate passed down through her son Washington Lafayett REECE. Jesse and Dicy were married in Old Surry Co., NC. This family was in Rhea Co., TN by the early 1820. My GGgrandmother Almeda Dicy REECE was born in Rhea Co. in 1828. Their second daughter Amanda Elizabeth REECE was born in Lauderdale Co., AL, in 1829 and their son Washington Lafayette REECE was born in Sumner, TN, in 1833. The family eventually made it to Johnson Co., MO by the 1840's. It is uncertain if Jesse was a mixedblood Cherokee but enough information was given to the State of Missouri for their decendants to be recognized as Indian or Native American through Dicy. I would like to find more about the parents of these two people. I do have over 500 of their descendants. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Query: My grandmother spent several years investigating our heritage in order to get us grandkids a CDIB and tribal registration.

Known children of this couple are: Lorenzo Dow Davis - b. 1835, Mary E. - b. 1836 (married a Brown), Margaret J. - b. 1845, Saphronia - b. 1848.

Mike Day
Query: Family legend says that my wife's great grandfather WILLIAM NEWBERRY went to America possibly in the 1880's. He returned to Wales in 1891 with his bride MARY NEWBERRY (formerly SMITH). Sadly mary died on the 7th November 1891 just hours after giving birth to a daughter. The legend says Mary was Cherokee and her grand children were dark skinned with striking facial features. The only reference on the 1880 census to a MARY SMITH of Indian origin was in Michigan and she was married to WILLIAM SMITH, occupation farmer also classified as Indian. They had four children, SARAH SMITH (b.abt 1872), MARY ANN SMITH (b. abt 1874), PAUL SMITH (b abt 1876) and JOHN SMITH (b. abt 1878). As this is the only Indian Mary Smith of the right age in the census is she the one I'm looking for and if so what happened to her first family? Mary was 35 when she died and is buried in Cardiff, Wales. If any of this rings a bell please contact me.
