Notes for GEORGE AGUSTUS HICKS:
George was born Abt 1792. History and Genealogy of the Cherokee Indians by Dr. Emmet Starr, page 448. Old Cherokee Families, Notes of Dr. Emmet Starr, Vol 3, Grant, by Baker and Hampton, page 4. Old Cherokee Families, Notes of Dr. Emmet Starr, Letter Books A-F, by Baker and Hampton, Vol 1, page 119, note C642.

From a catalog of students at New Spring Place, I.T. 1838-1842. In issue #8 & #9, Fall 1992 & Spring 1993 of Cherokee Family Researcher, page 18, it shows three of his children as students in 1840. At that time the family lived at Little Spavinaw, CN I.T.

1 Nathan Hicks
1-1 Chas R Hicks
1-2 Wm " +Sarah Foreman
1-3 Mary " +Vann +Holt
1-4 Elizabeth " +Scott
1-2-1 George Hicks (son of Chiuki) +Aky Rogers +Lucy Fields
[The 1-2-1 for George Hicks depicts George as the son of William, 1-2]

The Oothcaloga Mission Students list a George Hicks with Parent/Guardian of William Hicks, previously understood to be guardians due to Starr's book having listed George as the son of Charles Renatus; however, there is a child in the listing with Charles and Nancy as the parent/guardian and I would think it unlikely that William would be a guardian of just one of the children.

Between Starr's notes, and the Mission Student listings I believe that George Hicks should be carried as the son of William Hicks as opposed to being the son of Charles Renatus Hicks as is printed in his book.

George, as a son of William, is confirmed by the Moravian journal entry 02/16/1805 "...Sam Bigbee came and picked up George Hicks because his father, William Hicks, wants to take him home with him." And it's further confirmed in a letter written by William Hicks to the Cherokee Phoenix and Indians' Advocate, 7/8/1829, Vol II, No 14; "...As a brother of the Head Chief mentioned, and being one of the "whole of the Hicks family," stated to be in readiness to depart from this Nation to the West, I pronounce the above paragraph [refering to a quote from a previous article] in regard to me, my sons, George, Eli, Jay and William Hicks, to be a gross slander..." I am, Sir, respectfully, William Hicks, Sen.

Notes for CATHERINE MARIA MCCOY:
Halfbreed 1-1-1 Catherine Hicks

[1855 Testimony of Benjamin F Paden to Chapman, Special File 102]
...states that Catherine, his mother-in-law, is the daughter of Daniel McCoy and Lydia Halfbreed.

[letter of John Thompson Adair, 9/10/18xx]
Catherine was a half sister to George Hicks.

[The Gann Gazette, Fall 1991, pg 7]
In 1816, Congress passed legislation providing that Cherokees could acquire 640 acres of land if they took an oath of allegiance to the United States. Andrew Miller, as a white man, applied through the right of his wife, Catherine, and they acquired land on the boarder of Monroe and McMinn counties in Tennessee. In 1818, Andrew Miller was murdered on this land, and apparently Catherine returned to Georgia where her family was living.

Baptism: August 13, 1820
Blood: 1/2 Cherokee [1/4]
Clan: Ani'-Ga'tāge'wi = Kituah or Wild Potato (Gu-u-li-si)

Notes for ANDREW MILLER, SR:
[Special File 102]
In August of 1818 Andrew Miller Sr attempted to break up a fight between a Cherokee named the Eel and a white man [possibly a mixed blood] named William Maney and Andrew was killed by Maney. This story was recounted by Andrew's nephew, David Taylor, to John Chapman in 1855. This was part of the testimony collected by Chapman concerning the disputed Cherokee lineage of the Maney family.

Notes for THOMAS GANN:
[The Gann Gazette, Fall 1991, pg 8]
Thomas served in Captain Sam Bowman's Company of Mounted Infantry, East Tennessee Volunteers. The records show that he served from September 23 to December 22, 1813. He was paid for 3 months service at $8 a month which came to a total of $24. He also received an allowance of 40 cents a day for his horse which came to $36.40. It would seem that a horse was worth more than a man in those days!

[The Gann Gazette, Fall 1991, pg 9]
In March of 1831, Thomas Gann was arrested at New Echota as a white man living in the Cherokee Nation without a permit--in other words he had not signed an oath of allegiance to the state.
