First, I was not aware of the plight of the Louisiana Chahta. Dusty, is there something that our community at-large can do? Second, does anyone have any of the following: Any Brogden(sp?) or similar derivatives, any MacElyea(sp?) or similar derivatives, or any Evans listed on tribal rolls? In specific, I am looking for a tribal member by the name of Missouri Jane Brogden (Broglen, Broglin, Brogdin, etc.) born in Athens, AL approximately 30-years after the Trail of Tears. She married Mr. ? MacElyea(sp?), and had an unknown number of children, one of whom was Ida Maude MacElyea(sp?). After Mr. MacElyea died, Missouri Jane's farm was confiscated by either the State of Alabama or the town of Twickenham. She left Alabama with her children, married Mr. Frank Evans, and lived the rest of her days in Henderson, TX. She is buried in a prairie cemetery near Henderson. Her daughter, Ida Maude MacElyea(sp?), Married Mr. Richard Louis Hudson from Ireland. They had several children, the youngest one, and last surviving sibling at the age of 95, is Ouida Beatrice (Hudson) Hollis (born 12/02/1908 in Bivens, TX., Cass County). Thank you. Joe
