CROSSLAND, BOWERS, GRIMES, CHIEF WILLIAM ANDERSON, EXENDINE, OXENDINE, HARMON, EUKER, KECK, STEGALL, BURNETT, HART, FAIRMAN, LOGSDON
These are some of the surnames of our families that I am researching. My mother, Jo Evelyn Keck Crossland, and I have been doing research for many years. My husband is now getting into research. We have just recently started genealogy workshops at Miami Public Library.
I am a decendant of Chief William Anderson of the Delaware Tribe. I also have Cherokee blood through James Daniel Harmon who married Polly "Bleeding Heart" Euker in 1814 in Rowan Co.,NC.
I am still trying to prove my Indian heritage, and welcome any information.
My husband's family of Harts came from Cross Timber, Hickory Co., Missouri. For many years they had the Hart's Reunion in Creighton, Missouri where his aunt and uncle, Pearl and Fred Dickey lived.

We got married Dec 5, 1969 at my parents, John and Jo Crossland's house in Treece, Kansas. We didn't have a fancy wedding, but it was standing room only. My grandparents, Leora and Lester Koger signed as our witnesses. Darrell's brother George was his best man.
