those w/the Roll books, I would like to see if anyone could look up a name. I have the Cherokee Roots book for the Eastern band of Cherokee, but I can't locate it right now (I organized my stuff a while back, now I can't find anything LOL) Anyway, I need to see if someone can look up Loafman. A guy had asked me if I was familiar w/the name as he was told his Great grandma was Cherokee. He doesn't know her first or maiden name but her married name was Loafman. I'm waiting to find out more info. on his family to make it (hopefully) a bit easier to help. Anyway, if you could help. I'd appreciate it Alli :) http://geocities.com/eaglewhowatches/ saddles & baby furniture for sale

Hi, Alli! I looked in my copy and that surname does not appear. Nor is it in Dawes Plus or Miller Plus (accepted or rejected) or as rejected Baker. I did a quick check on Ancestry and found the Loafman name is primarily associated with PA, VA, and KY from the 1820 census onward (mind you, the 1800 & 1810 in VA were both largely lost). There were also Loafman's in the NC (1800 and 1810 census - Caswell & Guilford Co.'s) and there are a number of Loafman marriages in Caswell Co. 1808-1812, in Granville Co. 1851. Let me know when you get the names and I'll check some of the other resources I have. Blessings! Susan

Thank you bunches Susan. I hadn't got to the Ancestry records yet. Since I didn't know 'who' I was looking for, I figured I'd wait LOL But I'll pass this on to him.
