I am looking for the birthplace of my ggrandmother, Parmelia Tennessee Bricker Cox. I was told by my mother that she was part Cherokee but was not registered on the Dawes roll. Her mother was Eliza Sophia Thurman and her father was John David Bricker. Some believe she was born in TX but we have not found any information there. Her mother was born in TN and her father in PA. Any information will be appreciated.

Have you found her listed anywhere on the U.S. census? No matter what her race is suppose to be, the census is still the number one genealogical resource. If you don't know about or how to use the Soundex ("index" by the sound of the name), there are several places on the web that will explain it. Best Di
