It's Betty again. Yes, Alsa Maddox or Alice or Alsey and her name may have been Maddocks...was believed to be Cherokee. I think her father was probably European which is how she came to have the name Maddox..or Maddocks...her mother may have been full Cherokee. I have not been able to find ANY records...and believe that our Cherokee ancestors married whites and became known as white to escape being sent on the Trail of Tears.

This is just speculation.
