My great grand father John Henry Blaylock 26 Nov 1948 (1860-1948) Buried Tahlequah, Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory. My grand mother's mother Florene Strickland Bourland 1865-1935. Is there any way of finding this heritage. My grand mother Cumi Molly (or Molly Cumi 1898-1981)) Blaylock, I was named after her ( my name Molly Beck) She was a significant person in raising me. She was born in Ozark, Arkansas. Her brother CLyde Blaylock (1906) for whom my brother and Uncle Bud is named after. My Uncle Bud told me recently that they are Cherokee. When I was living with my grandmother (Molly Cumi ) I remember A native American doll, Moroccans and dress) on my bed These somehow disapeared . I still have the images. No one talked about this. When I hear the drum circle etc. I all but fall apart. Thank you, I have been working on this for several years. Molly Beck , Benedict, Thompson, Mangini, etc) On 5/5/2016 12:00 AM, cherokeegene-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > > Today's Topics: > > 1. Re: genealogy CHAT (Dan Matney) > 2.
