Brenda:

The Snowflower mentioned on the first web page is something like my first cousin four times removed and my second cousin twice removed. She is descended from the Green/Huston family I have mentioned on this forum. She has written a book on identifying hidden native ancestry. I accept her oral history that her line of the family includes a niece of Tecumseh, but I am not so sure that Shawnee is the main tribe. My family says Cherokee but the family movements say Saponi/Tutelo. Bill found evidence of a linkage between the Huston ancestor that we share (Andrew) and the gggrandmother of mine who has the Blackfoot ID, Nancy Agnes McLane (Not a relative of Snowflower that I can determine). My suspicion is that they were a mixed group. Her book not only has the type of headstones that different tribes used but she provides a list of common names found in many tribes. She told me she is updating it.

And please know, Brenda, that I am thinking of you. Take care!

Cindy

Hello Brenda and thank you for this.

All in All these are a great addition to an already wonderful site, Best Wishes Tom
