can YOu explain to me the relationship of Yell CO and the old settlers.
MY ggg gandmother died in Yell CO. I know she is daughter of Shoeboots through unknown( well can't remember wife), But I think! from family stories that shoeboots is related to either dragging canoe or springfrog.
I know where my ggg grandma dies. what relations or other cherokee families would she have moved there to be with in about 1880? she moves there with her daughter who married a J W Dameron born in Texas. Catherine (Ross) White married him in IN around 1875 ( starr refferences a Dameron in Yell CO, but nothing else is mentioned about the lines) , thanks for any leads. I do have where MY jane dies but it is in my netscape file and which is crashed right now. if you have census look up , search for Jw dameron, and Catherine ( I think she is listed as Kate there) and two children , Noble L Ross born 1845 in OH , and Jane Ross born 1809 in KY. that might give you a place to look. I know her husband or her son was in Quantrill raiders and so they have to be with Indian folks, or where indians and outlaws are safe from hassle<LOL> renee
