Hello and good morning, Have been trying to find Cherokee Indian Ancestors on the Dawes Rolls. May have more than one connection. Have traced back one of the Carroll's to have been married to a Melinda Postell. Most of this information is from the Internet only. William Carroll married to Melinda Postell, Melinda Postell's mother was Margaret Chastain, Margaret's mother was Annie Motes. Annie Motes' father was said to have been full blooded Cherokee Indian. Have not been able to come up with any documented proof concerning this information. Also have Robinson descendants that were suppose to have been from Mississippi who were of Indian decent. They were said to have changed their name from another name (possibly HEAD) to Robinson before moving from Mississippi to Oklahoma. Something was done to make them change their name, maybe a crime or to protect themselves from enemies, not really sure. Have Carroll, Underhill, Cardwell, Postell, Robinson, Bridgman, Pratt, Rose names. Their are mor! e names, but these are the main ones that am researching at this time. This may sound like a bunch of gobbledygook, but if anyone can make sense of the connections, and or have some information pertaining to these families, please drop me a line. If you have any information on possible resources that could be used to find this information, that would be greatly appreciated also. Thank you for taking your time to read this, Bobbi P.S. My maternal grandmother's maiden name was Pearl Snow Robinson and my maternal grandfather's name was Coy Whitfield Carroll. Pearl's mother and father were Nan Bridgman and George Robinson. My grandfather's parents were Charles (Charlie) Edward Carroll and Armanda (Minder) Jane Underhill. Thanks again for taking the time to read this! Bye for now.
