In "Wiregrass Roots" Vol 14, issue 2 October 1998 (published by Southeast Alabama Genealogical & Historical Society P.O.Box 246 Dothan AL 36302-0246) there is an article "The Bundrick Family of the Wiregrass and its Ancestry", contributed by Cynthia Nason pages 29-35. It is In her own words: a story by Lena Viola Bundrick Snowden, a pioneer woman midwife who went out west and returned to Alabama. It is about the Bundricks and Strothers. Mrs. Lena Viola Snowden was 90 when she died probably June 1965 in Covington Co AL. The article includes her obituary published in the Troy Messenger and tells that her grandmother was an Indian Princess, daughter of a Creek Indian Chief. Much more in article. I am afraid the story goes back lots further than my Aunt Etheral Gilley, Lynne, and I never said she was in any way responsible. I loved her very much. However, someone did cross out Smithson in the Crawford Co GA book and write Smith over it because I have a copy. I always belief th! at there is some Indian somehow in this family because I knew them and they all looked like and said they were Indian. How it goes I can't say. Don't get upset- we may find the answer yet. Read the article in the "Wiregrass Roots" if you can. I am certain Lena was a remarkable woman and certainly was not trying to misslead us. She probably told what was told to her. I think we all want the truth. All us Barnhill, Adkison, Strother, Bundrick, Rowell, Trawick, Gilley, Elliott,and many more family descendents. Celia Jones
