Message Board Post:
I'm looking for my Great Grandmother Nancy Colbert and her brother Cubby Jr. Their father was Cubby Colbert Sr. Unknown mother. Cubby Sr.'s father was Winchester Colbert. All were of the Chickasaw tribe in and around Pontotoc Oklahoma. My Grandfather, Nancy's son is from Nancy's first husband, Jim Greene. My Grandfather was raised by his Paternal grandparents and doesn't know much about his mother other than brief visits. My Grandparents have a picture of me sitting on GGmother Nancy's lap when I was about 2 years old.
The only records I can find about her was a census in 1910 where it looks as though she was living with her Uncle, Humphreys. Grandpa says he believes her parents died and she and Cubby Jr. lived with various relatives until adulthood. I also have found her death record listed in Oklahoma City in 1976. Grandpa says that when she died, the tribal government paid for her funeral since she was Winchester Colbert's Granddaughter.
As for Cubby Jr. along with the 1910 census record, I've found his WWI Enlistment as well as his death record in Fresno California.
I've been searching tirelessly for more records to give me an idea of what these two were up to. I'm finding it hard to find information since Oklahoma did not enter into statehood until 1907.
I also have found a record where it appears that Cubby Colbert Sr. was incarcerated in Michigan during the 1880 census. That's the one and only piece of info I can find on him.
All the other information I've gathered is from my Grandfather's memories. He's 95 with a sharp mind, but failing body. I've been asking him for his memories lately as I'm sensing the need to keep our Indian family heritage alive. When he's gone I fear our family history will be lost.
Thanks in advance for help.

William Colbert (b. 1837) married Bridget Woulfe and had 6 children in the Athea, County Limerick, Ireland area. The 6 Colbert children were Bridget, Edward, Richard b. 1860, John b. abt. 1869, Catherine b. abt. 1873 and Patick b. 1874. I believe at least 5 of the children came to the U.S. and settled in the St. Paul, Minnesota area around 1880. I'd love to hear from anyone who thinks they may have a connection. My email address is KColb952(a)aol.com.
