    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: joeschoolcraft69 Surnames: Schoolcraft-burkey Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.burkey/49.3.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Dear cuz Deidre Thanks for Al's info - will check it out, but I do believe that your James L Burkey marriage to Evaline Schoolcraft is the actual link to our Indian past with all the Schoolcraft boys being renegade Shawnee and 3 of them taking Indian wives in the Kanawana WVA river valley. The schoolcrafts marrying Indian "princesses" goes all the way back to Henry Rowe Schoolcraft and his brother James (came from Scotland) marrying native sisters of descendants of the Johnson's of New York, then locating in Michigan as Indian Agents per the records of the Schoolcraft College there.
