Surnames: Fivekiller, Boynton
Polly Fivekiller was born at Cherokee Nation East abt 1798. She was "MOVED" in what was called the Trail of Tears and she ended up in Cherokee Nation West / Indian Territory and died about 1859. She married Byron Boynton. She is on the Drennon Roll - 1839 arrival Fort Gibson. She is my grt, grt, grt grandmother and I am looking for any information regarding her life or family. My line descends from her daughter, Josephine (who I am also looking for.)

My line also comes from Josephine. She married Charles Johnson. One of their children was Frederick W. O. Johnson. His son was Carl Johnson. I am Carl's son, Carl Johnson, Jr.

I know Charles and Fred are both buried at Hillside Cemetery just north of Skiatook, OK. I also know one of Josephine's daughters married a Slattery, and another a Cobb. I knew her grandson, Ted Cobb, when I was a boy.

That's about it, other than Hello cousin!

Hello Carl,
I think this is amazing. I come through Andrew Jackson Johnson, to James Johnson, to Jimmie Ray, to me - Jennifer. I have been trying to get my father on the Cherokee Tribal Roll. He is eligible via Josephine and Polly Fivekiller. However, I cannot find a birth nor death certificate on Andrew. He went by so many aliases and lived so many places that I just cannot find him! It is the only document holding me up. The Johnson line is certainly interesting! I have had a lot of fun showing dad where he came from. My email is thejen@cox.net if you would like further contact or my tree to look at. Thank you for contacting me. Jen
