I have been watching this site for awhile. I don't know if you are still around. but I wasn't able to respond to it. because I hadn't totally proved out the family stories yet. I feel I have done that well enough now that I can say.
First I take it your ross line has stories of Head cherokee chief's? and what you and where does your paul say he is born on a census image.
you see twins runs in my cherokee family. Shoeboots was a twin male female set of twins and he had a set of twin boys. and his grandson had a set of twin boys and the father of him was a boy ?girl set of twins. and they think that shoeboots nephew had twins too.

anyway lots of twins.
then we have the names of your twins.
Nionee Ollie is shoeboots mom's name ( attacullaculla is his dad and dragging canoe, Dutch etc is his brothers) . Dolly is shoeboots last wife's name.
elizabeth their oldest daughter had a set of boy/girl twins Robert F Ross and Eliza Anne ross born 1848. indian names dasigiyagi and chahwahyoocah ( as seen on the drennen roll) ( these names are the same as shoeboots and his twins names) , then robert's son clarence had a set of twin boys in Ca.
elizabeth's youngest brothers are a set of twin boys named lewis and william.
Elizabeth Jane ( eliza, lizza jane) Shoeboots Married a (john?) Jordan ross ( probably a part blood ( unknown tribe). her sister is mary polly Boots. lots of mary's in the family too.

anyway I would need to see where and when your paul said he was born to know how he might be related to shoeboots.
