I am not up with your conversation, but my great grandmother was Margaret Brashears. I have not researched her further back than she married my great grandfather Lester Blackman in 1876 in MO. He was from NY state and I think she was from the southeast . I think some of the Brashears in this area went to Ind territory Oklahoma turn of century,.. I suspect them of Cherokee.
