I just came across this photo....it is a more recent one of Eva. She is on the right...I believe this is one of her dau-in-laws standing with her. This is the photo that really says "native american" to me.

Hi Stacy,

Sorry it took so long to get back to you, I have been out of town. The picture that I have is James Polk Gum. If I am not mistaken my dad has a picture of people he calls Aunt Mary & Sally and Uncle Rob. I haveto rebuild all my work, my computer crashed, so I lost eveything. I haven't had the time to work on my family tree lately.

Thanks for your information, I just purchased the "Leaves from the Gum Tree by Muriel Hoffman". I also hve purchased "A History of Highland County Virginia by Oren F. Morton, B.L." Some of the information in both books do not match. Which Gum line are you from?

Thanks,

Kimberly

Hello Kimberly,
Sorry it this comes through twice. I tried to post once, but cannot find it on the message board. My line is through Mary Gum, James Polks daughter. I would love to see any photos that you have of Mary, her father and anyone else in the family. I have some that I am trying to identify right now. Several people are helping me. If I run across anything that might interest you, I'll send it your way... sorry about your computer....hope you are back up and running soon!
