My great-grandfather was James Allen Thompson Parks, Dawes # 29529. I think the blood degree is wrong on many of these forms; I know his was. He was a Nancy Ward descendant through his father Thomas Jefferson Parks, and descended from Susannah Emory (Martin) through his mother, Mariah Ann Thompson I would love to find the story behind the Thompson family. Although they were white, at least four siblings married Cherokee and went to Indian Territory. They may also be related to the Thompsons who intermarried with the Choctaw/Chickasaw and went to Texas. I have my family pretty well documented and am happy to share.

Any one doing their NA genealogy, is welcome to chat about that and what locations your working on. Maybe some would like to Introduce them selves and who they are related to in the Cherokee. Or those still trying to land a real solid clue how they fit into the Cherokee are all welcome to join in. Since folks are all so quiet, maybe some chats will lead into some more solid exchanges.
