My name is Sammy (not short for anything) Edward Cason, Jr. I'm *nearly* 21 years old,
born March 11th, 1983 in Columbia, Missouri (currently live in Sallisaw, Oklahoma).
I'm on a quest of sorts, looking for relations whereever they may be, and trying to
find where exactly I come from, in terms of name/genetics origin, on the Cason side. What
little bit I know is limited to my immediate family. My dad is Sammy Edward Cason (duh!)
and my mother is Darcy Jane Furstenau. My dad was born in New Jersey, to Bob (most likely
Robert, midde name unknown) and Edna Stacia (middle name spelling? and maiden name unknown
at the moment). I have 3 aunts, Roberta, Debbie, and sadly I forget my other aunt's
name. I don't see them often. I also have 2 uncles, Scott and Steve (Stephen I
believe). 2 of my aunts and grandfather live in the Muskogee region, my dad, other aunt,
and uncles live in the Columbia, Missouri region. I don't know if any of that will
help or not. Also I know that I am 1/16!
th Cherokee (listed as 1/32nd, which I will get too). That means that my
grandfather's grandmother (they told me this) was a full-blood Cherokee, but she went
on the rolls as 1/2 in order to get more land, or something like that. So, if anyone knows
anything, let me know? Thanks in advance.
