Happy New Year! It's been some time since I've posted to the list. Researching Daughty/Daugherty, Chambers, Long, Atchley and Blackburn. All had Cherokee connections thru 1700's TN to 1800's AR to 1900's in OK. I have a Letter (copy) that my gg-mother Martha (Atchley) LONG (1813-1896) wrote/transcribed in 1893. It was typed and notarized probably to used for her sons, Lemuel D. LONG and Robert H. LONG to gain Cherokee Citzenship. I don't believe he ever used it, for various reasons. In it she described her family Cherokee status, and a few others. Many thanks to my cousin in TX for preserving it and giving our family copies. I will post it as some of you will be interested in it's content. Roger Long SR
