Native American genealogy research from the Piedmont of NC & VA
hi, I’m Derek Emmons. I’m pretty screwed up racially and just wanted to tie up all my loose ends before I left home for college. So i’ve been doin some geneology research and am having a hard-ass time finding info. on the tribe that my ggg grandmother (Fatima Tucker) belonged to. Another surname in the family is Spencer, which i know has roots in some other tribe. other surnames i have are Wise, Gaither, Lum, Lau, Reeves(if any of that helps :P)
So most of this side of the family is from Louisville Kentucky, although palces like Breckinridge Co. Ky, Fleming Co. Ky, Prince William co. Va, have also come up.
some dates, Missouri gaither:b1867-1949
her mama, Fatima Tucker:1829-1905(both in Breckinridge)
Fatima’s dad, John Tucker was born 1800 in Virginia
I’m not sure if i have any questions, but does anybody have a response to this, or am i related to any of you?
i would sooo appreciate it if you emailed me at Chunkymunki88@aol.com
Thanks a ton!
We have Tuckers here in Mecklenburg county, VA we know to be Indian and believe are Saponi-derived. Also, it’s well established that many Indian families migrated into Appalachia.
