    1. JESSE LEE- "D114b heir of Thomas Lee-Rising Fawn" 3/4 blood
    2. Previously I have posted many inquiries on our JESSE LEE, without much success. We know through family history he was Cherokee, and the name seems to carry on in various searches of the rolls. I tracked JESSEs brothers to ALA after leaving NC. (Aaron went to Burnt Corn ALA, which I have posted info on here before...) I was referred to James Hicks site and I found the following: More About JESSE LEE: 1836 Valuations: Cherokee Co, AL, #29 "3/4 blood" Detachment: Bet. October 19, 1838 - February 02, 1839, 05 Situwakee-Jones, on payroll as Teamster RG75, E247 Reg of Pmts: Abt. 1837, D114b heir of Thomas Lee (Rising Fawn) _http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/h/i/c/James-R-Hicks-VA/BOOK-0001/0 021-0047.html#IND11141REF59_ (http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/h/i/c/James-R-Hicks-VA/BOOK-0001/0021-0047.html#IND11141REF59) This states he was a Teamster- which our JESSE has been reported as such, and also a Stage Coach driver. (WHAT exactly is a teamster?) I am uncertain what all these above code numbers mean? Can anyone help explain these and what step to take next?
