Surnames: VENTERS DAVIS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/5R.2ADI/1197 Message Board Post: I was given information that my ancestor was a Creek woman from Georgia, and that her husband was an Indian Agent. We have traced some information through her daughter Mary Frances VENTERS (some say Venice) who married James Frederick DAVIS . I believe that her father's name was Stephen Venters(Ventress) and her mother's name was Jane. They lived in Telfair County Ga in 1820, Putnam County Ga in 1830, and Chambers County, Alabama in 1840. If Jane were an Indian, and she married a white man, would there be a marriage recorded for them? Is there any way to find out more information on Indian agents? What exactly did they do? Attached are photos of Mary Frances Davis. The first one is when she was younger. She would have been 1/2 Creek, if the family lore is correct.
