I am just joining the list. My grandfather's (George William CHEEK) family
was from the WV panhandle, formerly of the Washington area of Rappahannock
County, VA. His great-grandfather, Austin Cheek, appears in the 1850 and 1860
US Census in Rappahannock County, with his wife and children. Circa 1860/61,
they moved to Brooke Co., WV.
I would love to find Austin's ancestry, and am therefore thrilled to find this
List and also Wayne Cheek's website, to which I will be posting my GEDCOM.
Below is a partial Descendancy Chart.

QRYTEXT: I am searching for any information regarding the
names and dates of birth of my grandmother, Carrie
Clementine Cheek. She was born in Auburn, Georgia (Franklin
county). She married Henry Clay Cook in 1909. My
grandmother was 100% Cherokee. She and her family remained
in the southeast instead of leaving with the tribe for
Oklahoma in the Trail of Tears. After marrying Henry Clay
Cook she went against tradition and changed her surname to
COOK so as to not alert the government authorties.
