My grandmother was Eva June Walker. George's granddaughter. I know we are descended from Peggy as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03595326126980213218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367049773523193918.post-90649390912804165542020-11-09T16:21:04.705-06:002020-11-09T16:21:04.705-06:00Halito,
I'm wondering how I might contact you...Halito,<br /><br />I'm wondering how I might contact you about a quote in one of your articles. I work for the Mississippi Choctaw Language program and we are working to add stories to all the old homeland village sites. I have recently been adding information to the Oka Losa site in Lauderdale county, and just saw this in your article about the Juzan's. <br />"It was the relationship with Pierre and William that for years had me believing that Nitakechi was related to Pushmataha. Given his strong ties to the Black Water village though, I no longer believe that Nitakechi was related to Pushmataha through a sister. I can't rule out a brother, but I am unsure that there is a connection at all."<br /><br />I'm interested in your references about the Black Water village. I'm also trying to collect more information about Charles Juzan and perhaps you could help me there. Could you email me a jason.lewis@choctaw.org? jbstar76https://www.blogger.com/profile/11335817189516483499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367049773523193918.post-7016281291890018692014-05-02T00:35:00.933-05:002014-05-02T00:35:00.933-05:00"Like"! I like that, it's so true. ..."Like"! I like that, it's so true. I started off in my research looking for my father's Indian ancestry, thinking it was a very small amount. But it has turned out to be much more. And my mother's has also turned out to be much more. I am Chippewa, Iroquois, Cherokee, Choctaw and Creek (from family stories and research I am just short of 1/2). My Aunt just proved the Iroquois connection last month. My g-grandfather looked full, and we think his was, and we have photos of many ancestors that "looked" full blood, but many more did not. My Dad and his family all had black hair, my Mom has dark brown hair, but her grandmother and grandfather had black hair and black eyes. Most of my family has dark skin (olive), as do I. But I have not been received well at all when I have tried to make contact with some of the Native American tribes, so I gave up. But I am still proud of my heritage, my Mom and Dad have always been, my Dad's mother was VERY proud of it, to the point of chasing individuals with her cane if they said anything otherwise. She was a fun woman! But many on both sides of my family tried to hide it, and many still do. Not me, I love it. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
