Don't go to ancestry.com until you have to, use you search engine, there are several Cherokee Indian lists found at the same place you found this one at, use your search engine and type in Cherokee Indian Genealogy. The statement about the Cherokee Indian Princess is correct. There was no such thing as a prices in the Cherokee Tribe but a lot of people have that same story so much so that the Cherokee of North Carolina and Oklahoma both have information about the Cherokee Indian Princess stories on there web site. So, do not be embarassed about that. I suggest the Cherokee list first. There are lots of helpful people on those list. I am Cherokee descendant on 3 different lines, never able to prove any of it YET, I am also a descendant of James T. Barker of Henry County Missouri, and Colin County Texas. As far as I know my James T. Barker was not of Cherokee decent. He was born in Delaware.. Susan Terrell
