I had hoped that a listing of Upper Creek/Lower Creek chiefs would identify the tribe, but his name was not included as the census list didn't go back far enough. I have documetation for later descendants thru census/deeds/etc., that confirm Dale County Alabama as their home in the mid 1800's. Any suggestions on how I can find out more specific information?

To Debra Rivera, and anyone else descending from Richard L. Taylor and Susannah Hosford, here are some of my thoughts and concerns: I have been told that Richard (and a wife, Susannah -- and possibly not Susannah Hosford, but her predecessor) had: Adah, b. 1821-22; Willis, b. 1825; Letty b. 1826, and Beady b. 1826. Then, there are records in our line of the family that list these children: Jacob 1839, John Daniel 1842, James 1844, MArgaret 1846, William Henry 1849, Susan 1851, Elizabeth "Betty" 1852, and Milly (actually Mildred) 1857. I have been told that Susannah Hosford married Richard Taylor when she was 13 years old, that she was born about 1811-1817. Even if she was born in 1811, I cannot imagine that she was Adah's mother. However, I think it is possible that she was the mother of WIllis, Letty, and Beady -- and the other 8, of course. Question: what happened during the years 1826-1839 -- were there more babies? ones that didn't live? There was a Richard L. Taylor, Jr., who made it to Oklahoma -- was he one of their children? or, Richard's son from a previous marriage? I would find it quite strange if Richard had not been married at least twice before Susannah Hosford -- he was born in 1788 or 1789, and if he didn't marry Susannah until about 1824-1826, he certainly must have been married before. In our family, it is "thought" that the wife before Susannah Hosford was also a Susannah -- but my aunt cannot recall who she was, or exactly what happened to her. In our family, also, there are some varying stories -- that Richard was on the trail, his wife died, he defected and came back South and married Susannah Hosford; that he didn't go on the trail, but hid out in the swamp until it was safe to come out -- and I am told that he went to the Methodist minister in Vernon, FL, and asked to be put on the church rolls as white, so that he wouldn't have his lands taken away from him again. (Makes me wonder if he "looked" white -- since even my grandfather, who was only half Creek, was leathery and distinctly NA in looks). As to the name "Taylor": have been told that a Hardshell Baptist preacher got hold of the family, baptized them, and gave them the surname "Taylor." I would certainly like to know about when this was -- and what Richard's name might have been prior to becoming a Taylor. If anyone has any information that will help solve some of this, please feel free to speak up! Faye ---- Riveragirls3@cs.com wrote: > Hey Faye. This is Debra Coon Rivera from Elba, AL.

Hi, I'm related to the Bohannon/Buchanan family. Our family branch ended up in MS. We go back to 1642 and Dunkin Bohannon and wife Cicely Callomore who came to the usa via Barbados to Gloucester Co., Virginia. Some of the brothers (4th generation-Richard) moved to Chatham Co. NC and son Joseph to Wake County NC. Joseph Spears B. later moved to MS. There were others I think in TN.

Nancy Hale was captured by the Creek Nation and eventually married Far Off Warrior. Far Off Warrior was the son of Efau Hadjo, Chief of the Creeks from 1793 to 1803. In your search engine , put in "far off Warrior". Chris Clark , a descendant of Far Off Warrior has quite a lot of information. I don't think anyone ever found out who hannah Hale was. I am adescendant of the daughter of Chief Mad Dog whose anme was Big Woman. I think this makes us 8th cousins! Dorothy
