Halito Kennard, Yakoke for the welcome. As soon as I am fully recooperated, I am going to dig out my records and start postings. Hopefully we will find further connections. Is your Charles Harper, the brother of John Harper, who married Mary Ann Harper? If so, I believe a number of his sons went to Texas with Sam Houston. I believe this is interesting, because there is also a Cherokee tradition in my family and Sam Houston was adopted by the Cherokee.
