Query: I am hoping to find some info on my gggg grandfather who was a full blooded Cherokee as was his daughter(my ggg grandmother)His name was KING GRIFFIN and according to my family this was his true name and they called him "King the noble Indian of the Cherokee tribe". He had murdered his wife, (no one ever knew her name)was a real big man and I guess that's how he got this title. His dughter was Mary Elizabeth GRIFFIN. They were in the Eastern Band in NC and never went on the Trail of Tears. He supposedly hide in the woods so they couldn't find him and he stayed behind. The best I can figure he probably died around 1880-1890 and the tribe he was with was between the towns of Edenton and Hertford in NC. If this helps..Mary Elizabeth married George Harris and their first born child was Vina Ella Harris(my gg grandmother) who was born on Sept. 4, 1875 in Martin Co. NC. I will continue my facinating search of my family and any info anyone may come across would be greatly appreciated.

Willard W. Conley
Query: I am searching for any documentation on my Great Grandmother Talitha Steel Cacy. That is her married name, her maiden name is Steel who supposedly raised her. I do not know if she had any brothers or sisters, nor her real father or mothers name. This occurred in Russell or Tazewell Co. Virginia. Talitha was born in 1863. She married Mathias Jeptha Cacy in 1879 in Russell Co. and they had 4 children Leonard, James, Mamie, and Nannie. My Grandmother is Mamie, all records have been lost or destroyed and am going on elders in family relying on memory. Talithas mother and father may have been of the snowbird clan. Anyone having any information please respond.

Cal Young Vann
Query: I am almost certainly a GGGG grandson of Chief James Vann. My grandfather, Jesse Thomas Vann, was a son of Jesse Greenberry Vann. Both are buried in Antioch Baptist cemetery, 2 miles South of Apison, Tennessee, where the lived out their lives. I have found my great grandfather, Jesse G, on the Bradley County census of 1870. He was 18 then and married a woman 10 years older than himself, a widow with 4 children, one of which she brought to the marriage. My great grandfather named his first born son "James D." It is on that account that I strongly suspect my great grandfather was a son of James Denton Vann and Rosannah (Keithcart) Vann of Spring Place in Murray countuy, Georgia. They appear there on the census of 1850 and 1860. My great grandfather was born in 1852 and would have been about 8 on the 1860 census; while he is not enumerated among the children, he might have been visiting relatives, especially if the census had been taken in summer when school was not in session. Maybe his parents were busy or preoccupied when the Census taker stopped by. James Denton's father was John Vann, whose father was town chief James Vann. The missing bit of evidence is proof of Jesse G's parents. Spring Place is 31 miles SW of Apison. It has proven an illusive bit of information. Tennessee issued no death certificate on Jesse G. I would be grateful for any help, ecstatic over an acceptable categolry of proof. Thanks, Cal

Cherokcal
Query: My great grandfather was Jesse Greenberry Vann Jne 1852/Oct 1907. He lived in Apison TN throughout his qadult life. I believe he was the son of James Denton Vann, on the Murray county Ga census as living at or near Spring Place. He and his family are on the Murray Co Census of 1860 and 1870. My grandfather in not listed among them on the 1870 census, but there is room for him in the birth order/dates. At 18 my great grandfather married a widow of 28 with 4 children. He named his first born sone James D, likely after his father. I need to pin that relationship down, to affirm I am the GGGG grandson of Chief James Vann. Thanks in advance for any help.

Dorothy Spring
Query: I have been searching for information about my great grandmother, Sarah Matilda Houlcum-Holcome---Holcomb. She was born abt 1845, married Charles Clay Hughart in 1861, in MO died abt. 1875 either MO or IL. I have been told that she was a full blooded Cherokee Indian, but the only proof I have, is I found their oldest son James Henry Hughart and his family on the 1900 Dawes Roll. It states he was half Cherokee. I know his father was from Ireland, so it would have to be his mother. If any one has any information about Sarah or her family, I would very much appreciate hearing from you.

Carah Shore
Query: My great great grandmother was full blooded cherokee. Her name was Katie Birdsong. She was born deaf and dumb. When she was young, she was raped by a white settler (my great great grandfather)who was described only as a man with a limp. When she gave birth, she named the little girl Virginia Birdsong. Virginia later married a white settler with the last name of Forester. They went on to have 13 children one whom died at birth. My grandmother Betty was the youngest girl and married Earl Wayne Warnhoff Sr. They had 4 children together two girls and two boys. My mother Linda then married my father Andrew Charles Shore Sr. and they had 2 children me and my brother. I was wondering if anyone knew the name of Katie's mother. If it wasn't for her, then my great grandmother probably would have died because her mother couldn't take care of her. Thanks

Query: Carroll Hunter had a query several years ago requesting info about his ancester Minerve. She and her sister Mandy were traveling with the Cherokees, left the tribe and were adopted by the Taylor Hallmark family. Minerve married Houston McBride and moved to Searcy County Arkansas. Sister Mandy returned to her tribe. I believe that she later married William Young McBride. Want more information about her Cherokee connections-family said that she got an "Indian check". May have been a Woody or married to a Woody.

Query: I am trying to find information about my grandfather and his ancestors. I have found information from my father to my great-great-great-great grandfather. Their surname was SHELTON. My grandfather has told us stories that his grandmother or great grandmother was Cherokee. My sister remembers that grandfather said he had gotten a letter to be able to get land in Oklahoma. Is there anyway or anywhere I can go to find information? He had a half-brother that moved to Stephens County, Oklahoma. I do not know if he also received a letter and perhaps took the land. I would appreciate any help. If anyone is researching the SHELTON family I would be glad to check and see if our families connect.

Query: Im very interested in my possible Cherokee background. I need help! My grandmothers maiden name was Vera Alice Turner. She passed away here in Cleveland Ohio 2 years ago, and my grandfather, C.L. Holman just passed about a month ago. I wasnt very close with my dads side so I didnt get to talk to them much. I heard from my Aunt that we have native american blood, and I could have swore she said Cherokee, bit thats all she knew. I believe my grandparents hailed from Tenessee and we took a trip there once when I was maybe 8 years old, I am 31 now. Has anyone come across the names Vera Alice Turner, or C.L Holman? I believe they had some irish in them as German. Im also Polish but the only one that matters to me is my Native American roots, I just wish I knew more. Any info you have would be awesome.
