Looking for and info on my Great Grandmother- MAMIE LEE. We believe Mamie to be her first
name; at one time my grandfather thought it to be MARY (when he named my mother) but was
later told otherwise). She married GEORGE WILLIAM STRICKLAND (Son of William F. &
Julia Core(Coor) of Sampson County. My grandfather - WILLIAM BRASCO STRICKLAND was her
only child, and she died early 1904 shortly after he was born (12--07-1903.) She may have
died of pnuemonia or Cholera. (There was an epidemic at the time).
We know she had a brother JESSE LEE who had a son named YOUNG LEE. It is belived that
Young Lee settled in Cumberland County, NC. and may have married - Estelle (?).
Any info is appreciated. II have searched long & hard and most family info is lost due
to my Great grandfathers second wife Alda not allowing her name or history ever to be
mentioned. Anything I can find- no matter how insignificant will be helpful.
My grandfather was told that Mamie was at least 1/2 CHEROKEE.

Thanks!
