I am researching Rederick Massengale b. 1789 and his descendents. He originated in Nash Co., NC. They left NC around 1823 and emigrated to GA. But they appears in the Itawamba, MS 1840 Census. He m. Frances Hawk b. 1793 in N.C. Their children are '' A.M. ( Alfred) b. 1814 in N.C. '' Nancy b. 1819 in N.C. '' William b. 1828 in Ga. '' James b. 1830 in Ga, '' Jane b. 1830 in Ga. '' Anna b. 1 William married Mary Fletcher Williams on March 28, 1861. In 1902 they moved to Durant, OK (IT) with their daughter Susannah Eliz. and her husband ______ Haskett. It has always been passed down in the family that we are Indian - specifically Choctaw but have had no luck verifying this. Would a family move to IT at that time and not be Indian? Rederick's father (Rederick also) m. Mary Sun. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Lisa Thompson
