    1. My Native-American-Ancestors
    2. C.Lee Driskell
    3. Ladies and Gentlemen, I am doing my family history even though I got a late start. I am sorry to say that our family did not share many "stories" about their ancestors so I am pretty much in the dark. I do remember, however, that my Grandmother, Sarah Kathryn BROWN spoke of being Native American. She was born 08/25/1876 in Paulding County, Georgia. I don't have much at all about her except that she married John N.Driskell on 07/23/1893, and they had _4__ children, one of whom, Mary Modell BRETT, later married Emmett Grady Driskell in Bay County, Florida. They had six children. In checking around the area from which my Grandmother came, and asking questions, it is possible that she was Cherokee. I have found a Katie Brown on the 1880 census for Georgia. This child is the right age to be my grandmother. I would really appreciate any advice that any of you could give me regarding making more progress in my family genealogy. There are 38 *BROWNs* listed in Emmet Starr's index, but I don't have a copy to check them. Maybe someone would, PLEASE! C.Lee Driskell cldris@lasal.net -- *I don't suffer from INSANITY.
