Do you show anything on James Anderson Lea? He married around 1829, we think to an Indian (no known name) and by 1835 had 3 children - Walter 1830; Catherine 1831; James 1832/3 - In 1840 the courts in McMinn County TN awarded custody of Walter and James to a William Lea, stating that James Anderson Lea was deceased. Don't know what happened to Catherine. The picture we have of Walter Lea shows that he is definitely part Indian. No known picture of James or James Anderson Lea. Any help would be appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: cherokeegene-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:cherokeegene-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Forbes@lists9.rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, May 09, 2015 1:23 PM To: cherokeegene@rootsweb.com Subject: [CherokeeGene] Those Who Cried - Henderson Roll/Cherokee Census of 1835 I just got a copy of this book which is a transcription of the Cherokee Census of 1835.

Some times elders can ( look ) part Indian and be full English, German, etc: Looks, is not a positive. Tracing where they came from and what time line is. Photography was not well known until the 1800. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_photography After the introduction, it was not used widely or in the wild as much as in studios. Some paintings are older than that. Have you other data to show Indian with the previous people in your line that might help show a time line and area where they lived around Indian Territory ( IT ) is the abbreviation for that. You know by the 1820's most of the area was cleansed of Indians. I have the rolls here, so does Judy at access genealogy. I also think you might use the link Alli sent. Here is a idea, get a large butcher paper, put your people up on the wall in time lines and locations, make a hand map or use a wall map, like me, I got a really nice wall map and I dont have any walls open lol;) So instead of pins, I use colored perm markers and make dots, each line its on color and Indian is red next to a dot.... So far the Indian ( we know * or thought we know*) has no proof. Some times Indians had no proof back then - and we go by looks - just be it known, looks can be deceiving.
