I found this on the OCTK-L list and since it had several Carmack
listings I
would pass it along. Does anyone know what source 34180 is? Looks like all
the Carmack ones were rjected based on this claim.

Subject: [OCTK-L] Cherokee claims - some from the Overton County area.
I found these names of persons who had filed through the Cherokee Court of
Claims from the Overton County area. My great grandmother Charlotta Neal
Burgess also applied (claim #36400) and her claim was rejected. This is not
meant to be a complete list. I tried to proof it, and think it is correct.
Hope it is a help to someone on the OCTK list.

My family coat of arms ties at the back... is that normal?
Hi Dale,
Everyone line up in Overton County and said "I am kin to Charles
Harmon,
Indian," all rejected, I have a notebook full of these claims they are good
because they give parents,granparents, children, brother and sisters, sad
note is all rejected, Charles Harmon was not Indian but all of these people
thought so. I have documentation to prove his family came from Germany so
they are German not Indian. Charles and his father Peter was in Greene
County Tn. before TN was a state. Some of my cousins think they are Indian
through Charles Harmon.
Bill has a line that came through Greene County and legend is the same in
his family as mine. Bonnie White is a friend, since I came to the mountain
I had lost contact with her. Agnes
