At Long Last ... I have finally linked my REAL father to his Father with recorded documentation. Jasper Etnie Pugh is my Paternal Grandfather. I am the illigitimate son of Malcolm "Dutch" Pugh and Rita May Naquin of the New Orleans, Louisiana area in the early 1950's. I was born on October 23, 1951 in New Orleans, Louisiana. I have all documentation to support this, such as Birth Certificate and Adoption Records. I need to establish Lineage in a legal format, because I named my daughter after Elizabeth Jordan, her great, great grandmother, so as to keep the Cherokee Indian Heritage alive in my Family Line. I do not know where this will end, but for now I have accomplished the pinnacle of Geneological happiness, I have linked my past to my present .... Thank God.
