For years I heard my father say that we were Irish and Blackfoot Indian but, the Blackfoot Indian tribe was from Old Virginia. I have been researching my ancestry and came upon two different sets of information that made me start to wonder. The first was a book about the Melungeons and the second
Was a US Census about a Forest M. Powers in Scott Co. Va that was a freedman and a Forest M. Powers
That was a slave owner. All got my interest. I also have found that the surname, Powers is on the Black
Chickasaw Indian group. What I am trying to find out is, does anyone have any information about all
Of this.
