Query: I know my aunt Carol Rioux who's maiden name is Souliere, told me that a great,great,great grandmother of ours was "Cherokee" Indian! This is very exciting for me to learn, could you tell me anything by using the last name "Souliere" my maiden name and my real grandfathers name? I only have been told my grandfather was a drifter, didn't know much about him. Anyhow his son (my dad's name) is Ronald Souliere and the other son's name is Edward Souliere both born in Holyoke, MA 01040. Four siblings all together, my real mother Barbara, her sister Carol, and also the two brothers I mention earlier. My grandmother's maiden name was Barbacki, from Poland, but lived most of her adult life in Holyoke, MA.

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

It states he was half Cherokee. I know his father was from Ireland, so it would have to be his mother.

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
