I too had heard that an ancestor was Cherokee and something about the Trail of Tears but I
don't know if it was true. I haven't been able to find out her name or who she
was married to and I just assumed it was a she. My Grandfather James W. Carden had a
brother by the name of John and both those names are family names.

Legend has it that Rachel was a Cherokee Indian Princess, rescued from the Trail of Tears.
I believe she was the 3rd wife of John C. Carden, My GG Grandfather and mother. I too have
not found any documentation.
