My GrandPa thinks he remembers a name "sounding" like these being said about one of the men who came to visit his mother that was an
Uncle but he was very young and after she died they did not come back.
Nancy was said to be Full Blooded Cherokee(Or at least Half) She was a dark complected woman with high cheeck bones , very dark brown/black hair, about 5'6" tall. My GrandMa said she remembers being at her Funeral and seeing a few men that she was told as a girl were Indian Relatives of Nan.
Benjaman Douldgals might have went by the nicknam "
Pete" or just B D
Daniels.

I am trying to find who her parents were I can not seem to trace her to anywhere. If the Indian story is true she might have received some sort of Land
Grant in KY/TN that the Gov did but i can't find any record of that either.
ANY HELP is Welcomed! Thank You.
