It has been a bit colder this weekend. Most of my people on my Dad's side are from North Carolina and Tennessee. Most of my people on my Mom's side came from just on the North Carolina side of the line around Poke County, but came to South Carolina now I have tons of cousins living in the upstate. I have one group of family that came out of Cataloochee North Carolina which is now the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. That group was Caldwell's/Colwell and I believe this group is where I get my Cherokee blood. My Great Great Grandfather Levi Caldwell spoke Cherokee. I had been to Cataloochee many years before I found that out that was my ancestor home. I walked through some of the old houses that were there and just felt so at home. Mary year later while doing my research I found that my Caldwell came out Cataloochee, so I took a trip there and as I came into the valley I realized it was the same that I had been to many years before. It turned out that the house I was in was my Great Uncle home. Then I understood why my feeling for the valley the first time there. I intent to take another trip there this year, but I will have to see.
