Native American genealogy research from the Piedmont of NC & VA
I had thought that some where recently on this site I had seen posting re: the last name Keeste!
recently I located the article by jay Vest, re. my post “Tutelo Article”; in this article it has a list of Tutelo Chiefs names and list a Chief Keeste, and has a short discussion of it, very interesting.
Keest (no e) is translated as “laddle”, that equates with the Biloxi ketci , bent like a hook. (Schaffer”Introduction: The Tutelo Indians”xvii.
In this bibliography is some of the best references that I have seen regarding this research.
Some of the sources cited really needed to researched.
