The Cherokee applications started 1906, so I need names of the children including married names at that time and dates and where they lived. You have this on the Monroe Tn mailing list but I never heard of a Borcel Wilson. I can access the Cherokee applications on footnote, but need more info.

I went thru the index and looked at names for a John or Wm. and nothing matches the information you gave. You gave no dates, were any of that list still living in 1906. You gave no married names for the girls so I can't check them. I even looked under the Indian name. So unless you have living females and give me a surname, so far I can't find a thing.

Hi, I think I may be able to help you. My dad's mother was lillie may brown Lecroy. Her mother was Martha J Wilson. Her mother was Suzanna Davenport. From the information my dad gave me, they were cherokee indians. Our cousin in trion georgia has photos of Martha J wilson and all her children. I received lots of information from my dad. His grandfather was willian julis brown. Maybe we could put out information together and help each other.
