Thanks for all of the Cherokee information and links. I will be convalescing for the next week, so I am going to take the opportunity to read and research some of the many great links you shared with me. I am not exactly sure where my ancestor fits in to all of this, except that she would have been in the Ky area in the 1830s. A whole new world is opening up to me, the more I research my roots. I was expecting to find English, German, and Polish ancestry, but my Native American roots were a surprise (and a welcome one). After I began discovering all of this and sharing it with my mother, she told me…”Oh, yeah, my dad always said we were part Native American, but that the family didn’t really talk about it.” Wow. I am truly enjoying getting back in touch with these generations and honoring them by remembering their heritage, and what they have given me. Thank you for being so generous with your time!
