    3. You can cross me off of your list. I have no knowledge of the surname you are searching. A hint to finding your ancestors since you have dates is to go to census reports. 1850 is the start of the most complete records in the US> Also if you can find specific places where they were located in MS it would be helpful., Good Luck, Jeri ________________________________ From: CHOCTAW-SURNAMES <choctaw-surnames-bounces+colorway=hotmail.com@rootsweb.com> on behalf of Richard Ricardo Waldrop <rewaldrop@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, November 24, 2017 6:31 PM To: choctaw-surnames@rootsweb.com Subject: [CHOCTAW-SURNAMES] Jamerson surname Hello all, I am new at this so I appreciate your patience.

    3. Hello Jeri and All, My direct line never mad it to the rolls either, by choice or chance, I'll probably never know. A line of inlaws did (Harmon).  Accounts given by both relatives and chruch friends from there, a great uncle and older cousins hearing Choctaw spoken, hearing that English was the second language with that accent, and a very few survivng photos. Slavery also blocks my search.  I even found the family of the plantation owners who hid my full-blood ancestor from the trail of tears, and the names/listing given match completely.  They won't respond. Me: Jeff JuniorChoctaw ancestor: Willis Mann, 1849 - 1952Place: Choctaw County, AL On Sunday, November 22, 2015 10:00 AM, Jeri Beitel via <choctaw-surnames@rootsweb.com> wrote: First let me say that I know nothing about the Bacon family. I am replying mainly to your questions about naming patterns and mating patterns in the past up and until the 1st qtr of the 20th century. First of all it was common to repeat names of relative and ancestors when naming children. For example, I was named after my aunt, who was named after her grandfather. My mother was named after her grandmother and an aunt.   As far as mating patterns, it was not uncommon for relatives and ethnic crosses to mate, especially in closed societies like small native enclaves and people who lived in relative isolation like wilderness situations where there were limited possibilities for partners. Think of history where the population was sparse in many areas. I know it's hard think of this today when so many people populate this country.   I hope this helps in answering part of your query. In my own case I can tell you that my native heritage quest has been limited because they never made it on the rolls.   Jerry(Jeri) Sammons Beitel      ________________________________________ From: choctaw-surnames-bounces@rootsweb.com <choctaw-surnames-bounces@rootsweb.com> on behalf of Jillian Tolley via <choctaw-surnames@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, November 22, 2015 4:04 AM To: CHOCTAW-SURNAMES@rootsweb.com Subject: [CHOCTAW-SURNAMES] Bacon family, Choctaw I've recently started doing some family geneology research and I have a few questions.. Im new at this so please bear with me... I have noticed that the females in my family, including myself, all have the name Susan somewhere in our names. Susan is my middle name, my grandmother's birth name was Susan, and so was her mother's. I was wondering if this was just a traditional thing that applied to just my family or was it common practice? My grandmother was born in 1913... my great grandfather is Silas Bacon dawes card #894 enrollment #2373 (1870-1927). He had numerous children with quite a few different women. There are no official marriage records that I am aware of. One of Silas's "wives" , Sallie Bacon dawes card #894, enrollment #2374 had a daughter Susan Bacon dawes card# 894, enrollment # 2377. On the Choctaw Roll Susan Bacon's father is listed as James Durant of Jackson County, and it also states that Silas Bacon is Susan Bacon's Step father. After Sallie Bacon had passed away in 1911, Silas and Susan Bacon gave birth to my Grandmother Susan Irene Bacon on 8 September 1913. Were those kinds of relationships normal back then? Seems really strange to me. My grandmother never spoke too much about her parents other than the fact that they died when she was little. Also, I've hit a dead end with Silas Bacon's parents. On the enrollment card it states his father as Dennis Bacon and mother was Litey Bacon both were dead during the time of enrollment and died in Cedar county, Antlers Indian Territory. Any information or push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Jillian S.

    3. First let me say that I know nothing about the Bacon family. I am replying mainly to your questions about naming patterns and mating patterns in the past up and until the 1st qtr of the 20th century. First of all it was common to repeat names of relative and ancestors when naming children. For example, I was named after my aunt, who was named after her grandfather. My mother was named after her grandmother and an aunt. As far as mating patterns, it was not uncommon for relatives and ethnic crosses to mate, especially in closed societies like small native enclaves and people who lived in relative isolation like wilderness situations where there were limited possibilities for partners. Think of history where the population was sparse in many areas. I know it's hard think of this today when so many people populate this country. I hope this helps in answering part of your query. In my own case I can tell you that my native heritage quest has been limited because they never made it on the rolls.

Im new at this so please bear with me... I have noticed that the females in my family, including myself, all have the name Susan somewhere in our names. Susan is my middle name, my grandmother's birth name was Susan, and so was her mother's. I was wondering if this was just a traditional thing that applied to just my family or was it common practice? My grandmother was born in 1913... my great grandfather is Silas Bacon dawes card #894 enrollment #2373 (1870-1927). He had numerous children with quite a few different women. There are no official marriage records that I am aware of. One of Silas's "wives" , Sallie Bacon dawes card #894, enrollment #2374 had a daughter Susan Bacon dawes card# 894, enrollment # 2377. On the Choctaw Roll Susan Bacon's father is listed as James Durant of Jackson County, and it also states that Silas Bacon is Susan Bacon's Step father. After Sallie Bacon had passed away in 1911, Silas and Susan Bacon gave birth to my Grandmother Susan Irene Bacon on 8 September 1913. Were those kinds of relationships normal back then? Seems really strange to me. My grandmother never spoke too much about her parents other than the fact that they died when she was little. Also, I've hit a dead end with Silas Bacon's parents. On the enrollment card it states his father as Dennis Bacon and mother was Litey Bacon both were dead during the time of enrollment and died in Cedar county, Antlers Indian Territory. Any information or push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Jillian S.
