I have great pride in knowing that i come from a strong beautiful people who loved America,that fought hard for what they believed in and at all cost never gave up.It saddens my heart that my people today still struggle to get what is rightfully theirs.America was our land and the white man forced us to have very little land.I ask WHY?I feel my people were a threat because we were so large in number.We are strong in spirit and peaceful at heart.How could another culture hate my people so much to feel they had the right to take whatever they wanted from them,still to this day the government has it’s hands where they don’t belong,and has never really given my poeple the justice it desevers like so many other cultures.So many trials the Cherokee faced they stood there ground,i feel america would be a different place if the white man would of left us alone and gave us the land that was repected and loved by the Cherokee Nation.

I am looking for any information I can find on John Lewis Clark (wife was Della), his father was John C. Clark (wife was Margret or something close) her last name is sketchy something like Done Forner Clark? the only information I have is that John C. Clark lived in the Tennessee/Kentucky area and that his wife was full Cherokee and he was part cherokee I believe. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My great-grandmother was always said to be a Cherokee. Her name was Dradie Ann Marandy LaSnowbird Rooker. I don’t know if the name “Rooker” was added on in order to be “accepted” or what. But, I can’t find family names on the Dawes Roll or the Baker Roll. I am certain she was a part of the Snowbird Cherokees.

If anyone comes acreoss this message and has suggestions that will assist me or has knowledge of her or my family I would appreciate assistance.

My paternal grandparents were married around1880 in Alabama, she being 1/2 Cherokee. Not much is known other than her Indian named translated as Minnie. Their last named was Sanders. I have found information on my grandfather, buthave been unable to find out anything on my grandmother. Do you know where I can go to find out more details that would lead me to her ancestory of Cherokee. I realize that I am considered 1/8 th Cheokee and want to know more aboutmy links to the Eastern Cherokee Tribes. Any information you can give me would be greatfully apreciated.
Thank You in advance.
