From: Cherokee Nation Queries http://www.tngenweb.org/tnfirst/cke6-00.htm My father always said his mother's people were Cherokee from the Smokey Mountains. I am looking for parents of Margaret YATES (B: 15 Nov 1829 in TN; D: 28 Mar 1899 in IL, her parents were both also born in TN) Md: James H. DICKSON, 4 Mar 1848 in Squire A.
