538.DELILAH AMELIA⁷ VANN (JAMES DI-GA-LO-HI⁶, WA-LI⁵, SISTEROF⁴RAVEN, A-NU-WE-GI³MOYTOY, MOYTOY², A-MA-DO-YA¹) was born Abt. 1789 in Spring Place, GA, and died November 30, 1838 in Charleston, Bradley, TN.She married DAVID MCNAIR, CAP December 30, 1801 in Knox Co, TN, son of JAMES MCNAIR and MARTHA PRICE.He was born 1774 in Sullivan, TN, and died August 15, 1836 in Charleston, Bradley, TN.
Notes for DELILAH AMELIA VANN:
Delilah is listed as being born June 30, 1795 but her marriage license was
issued on December 30, 1801 in Knox County, TN.This would have her as
six years old when she got married.I'm going to guess here that the birth
date is most likely in error.

Burial: 1838, McNair Cem, Polk Co, TN
Notes for DAVID MCNAIR, CAP:
"Cherokee Myths", James Mooney, p 221-222;
McNairs Grave: Just inside the TN line, where the Conagauga river bends
again into Georgia, is a stone-walled grave, with a slab, on which is an
epitaph which tells its own story of the Removal heartbreak.McNair was
a white man, prominent in the Cherokee Nation, whose wife was a daughter
of the chief, Vann, who welcomed the Moravian missionaries and gave his
own house for their use.The date shows that he died while the Removal
was in progress, possibly while waiting in the stockaide camp.The
inscription, with details, is given from information kindly furnished by
Mr D. K. Dunn of Conasauga, Tennessee, in a letter dated Aug 16, 1890;
"Sacred to the memory of David and Delilah A McNair, who departed this
life, the former on the 15th of August, 1836, and the latter on the 30th of
November, 1838.Their children, being members of the Cherokee Nation
and having to go with their people to the West, do leave this monument,
not only to show their regard for their parents, but to guard their sacred
ashes against the unhallowed intrusion of the white man."
