I'm sorry I jumped the gun and put in the Passmore name early. My computer has been down for 2 days and I've just started my e-mails. At any rate, the Passmores went from North Carolina to Tennessee in the 1850-60's. This is about the best information I have. No idea if they were Native American or not.
