I emailed the county recorder (archive expert) in Breckenridge Co. to see if she could send confirmation. I am also going to school like my sister, Sandy. We are both training to be teachers. Mine is K-8 and have student loans out also. I just turned 55 and Sandy is the next youngest and then our sister Karen who is 46.

Hi Linda,
I thought I emailed you but the other posting did not give a name. Was that you as well?? Anyhow, was Colonel older or younger than my grandpa? I never got to meet him. He and Ruby divorced when my dad and his twin sister were young. I knew he had Cherokee in him but was never sure how much. I"d love to find out. I have school loans I sure could use some help out with them if we have have enough to qualify for! Even my daughters?? I have pictures of my grandpa and he does look very much like he has some native american in him as well as my dad and my aunt. If you send me your email, I can send you a pic of my granpa. I'd love to see a pic of his brother. Was that the only two in that family? Are you the one that said that Squire was adopted or were they both adopted?? Who was their birth parents and who adopted them? I never heard that story before?? You can email me back at horselovinmama57(a)yahoo.com. I'd love to chat with you.

Hi Marlene,
I am really interested in how we are related. I found some indication that Gilla Free is Cherokee and that Squire Chezem was an Indian child adopted in Breckenridge County Ky. I am looking for information that either supports the first or corrects it. Can you help? Please email me at Youthwork4(a)aol.com if you want me to send you the data. Many thanks, LLC
