"I have Cherokee
blood in me. I have just enough white blood for you to
question my honesty!"Will
Rogers
amazing
quote by Rogers - his mother was a Scrimpshire.....Rogers
and Scrimpshires were indian and almost everywhere I go in my
genealogy research and my daddy's family resided in Rogers
County Oklahoma in the 1920s.
Alice Lorena
Stephens married John Thomas Bozeman in Dublin, Montgomery,
Alabama.
Their daughter Lorena Emma Bozeman married
Charles Allen McClain in Ramer. Charlie's parents were
Elizabeth Broadway and Josiah Marion McClain as noted in his

"Nancy".

Annie Lee
Carter changed her name to Anne Alice Carter, because she
had no idea that her grandmother was Annie Lee Stone Fenn
Carter born about 1875, so she chose to use her own mother's
name Alice. Annie Lee Stone might have been the full blood
Cherokee we are searching for. Of course Annie Lee Stone
might have married a half blood Wm Fenn in 1893 as we see
the Cherokee blood runs strong in his mother's line of
Harrell.

Fenn family plot owned by Orr is
quite a mystery that surely some of the relatives can
resolve. Perhaps Bob Fenn knows since he had Uncle Emmett
buried there.
Tracking our roots, cross country.
Many records or legal documents were lost when courthouses
were burned, during the war, yet there were many adoptions or
marriages that were never legalized as people simply changed
their last name. Alabama didn't even start recording birth
certificates until about 1908 and Kansas had a lot of errors
on the birth certificates of my family...Nicknames confuse the
process and back then there were many Buds, Marys, Pollys,
Dolly, Sallys, Kitty, Bettie, and usually these nicknames had
nothing to do with their legal name, and often times the legal
name was totally forgotten by relatives and friends. Mom heard
that her dad was often called Nick. His mother's name was Anna
Lou yet called Annie Lee. This causes many errors on legal
documents such as their death certificate...Cecil's death
certificate shows his wife was Ellie McLain but she was
legally named Alice Emma McClain and her mom called her by
Emmer. Her great grandpa James McClain married a woman only
known as Anna and we ask why didn't anyone ask about her
maiden name or did she have an indian name before she got
married....My Uncle Mat Fenn is listed as Mathew at the
cemetery yet his real name was Madison and his mother Emeline
was shown as Emily on the census records plus his sister Ida
Fenn was listed as Ida Fennel; Fenn was actually Fann in the
1700s. Then I believe that my grandpa William Frank Fenn was
really named Franklin... My Dad was Frank but was mostly known
as Bud. My Uncle Cecil was mainly known as Junior. My
grandmother Luella was called Lue or Rue while her sister Amy
Marie was known as Aunt Mae. Luella's death certificate shows
her mother's name was Gladys but it was Lattie Cedonia. My
grandpa Carter's death certificate shows his wife's name as
Ellie but it was Alice Emma and I always heard that her name
was Emily. My husband's Aunt Billie was legally named Glennie
Thornton and her sister Tutor was legally named Loraine, so I
guess very few knew. Then some liked to use their middle
name, like my Uncle Billy preferred to be called
Larry...Another issue we deal with is when those native
americans were baptised, they were given an English name, so
if you were searching the indian rolls, which name would be
used? Some just married an indian and "gave" them a Christian
name...Indians also liked hearing new names and simply
switched names on their own. Plus we had other families who
enjoyed changing the spelling of their name like McClain
became McLain/McLean/Mc Lane, or the Cochran became Cochrane
and Boseman became Bozeman or Boozman or even Bosman and once
found on a census looking like Bogeman and then Brooke became
Brooks. Think about Pocahontas - she was called Rebekah.
Sequoyah's real name was George Guess, which was derived from
Guest or Guist and we find Gist among our relatives in the
Carolinas about 1800. Chief Red Eagle was really William
Weatherford, the son of Charles, yet some say previous
generations spelled it as Whitherford. Then about Chief
Powhatan, nobody will ever know the many names of his wives
and children, nor where they migrated and the Little/
Weatherford research of Kentucky had focused on a young indian
bride named Cleopatra.Few had education, could not read nor
write, did not know their date of birth and many did not know
their parents nor where they came from. My granny Lorena,
known as Aunt Rena, had her numbers mixed up on several
papers, but much of her time was spent out on the farm and not
in a classroom. Her son Charles Henderson could not read nor
write, signed his name with an X mark and he is buried in an
indian cemetery near Fort Mitchell. Then we have the
prejudiced census takers who wrote down only what they heard
instead of the official spelling of names or even the racial
problems they had, like the only races were black or white,
and anything other than that would be called Mulatto, which
really is not fair to the Native Americans that we are
seeking. Indians

1842 IRWINTON Ala stampless letter FENN, GEORGIA
(21
KB) The letter reads: "I give to Adaline Griffin
thirteen head of stock Cattle and mark and brand mark crop and
half cross in the left year [sic] and two under betts [?] in
the side Recorded by me and brand A G." Apparently, Fenn was
out of town, and so addressed this letter to himself, and the
Post Master at the General Store (or such) in Bainbridge had
probably been told to open his mail in Fenn's absence, and the
Post Master took this to the courthouse, where the county
clerk signed noted it "recorded" and signed it "A.D. Smart,
Clk." Decatur county. It's a quarter of a full lettersheet.
Maybe there was a shortage of paper, or there was other
writing that was torn off and long gone, who knows. Postal
marking cover is all there.
