I neglected to mention that Sarah was born in NC c 1830 as were both her parents. Joyce Gaston Reece

I am seeking sources &/or information concerning a link between the Love & Wood families and the Chickasaw Indians.....probably in North Carolina. Could have involved the Shelton family in the area of Buncombe Co. Explicitly, Sarah Wood (married surname), Sarah M. Woods is found only one time. On the 1880 census. She is living with a son "M" Wood. Three children are listed as Marion, age 17, John age 15, Martha age 13. "M" Wood wife was Hasseltine ____. She was Indian according to several of her grandchildren. Hasseltine named her daughter Lillie Love Wood. Love seems to be a prominent surname among the Chickasaw. Hasseltine's son was David Wood. Joyce Gaston Reece

Below is what I have gathered from various other researchers, showing the circumstances under which Thomas Love, son of William "English Bill" Love, fled to the Chickasaw nation during the RW, married a Chickasaw and had several Indian children. Your roots may go back to this: RE. FATHER WILLIAM LOVE ( b. Lancaster Co.? PA): 1753: Sept. 3, he received a land grant of 800 acres in Anson Co., NC, now Chester Co. SC. 1780: "He was a Tory (loyal to the British king]. In the early summer of 1780 (some sources say July 12) the American patriots were moving against their Tory neighbors in upland South Carolina. "There was a tragic incident in which William�s nephew, Col. Andrew Love (note: it is speculated that Andrew's father, Alexander Love, was Wm's bro.] and Col. Brandon went to the house of John Sterling (name has often been confused as Stallings or Stallion) where a group of Tories was reported to have gathered. John Sterling�s wife was Sarah Love, the sister of Col. Andrew Love. It is said that when the Tories were ordered out of the house, Sarah came out first to appeal to her brother. She was apparently mistaken for a man and was shot and killed. "Shortly thereafter, Col. Brandon sent out a scouting party to track down more of the Tories. One of his parties, under a Capt. Reid, shot and killed William Love�s son, James, as he attempted to flee across the Broad River at Love�s Ford, near the Chester-York line. "When English Bill heard of his son�s death, he and William Sadler, a brother of James Love�s widow, went to the house of a neighbor to find Capt. Reid. They called Capt. Reid out of the house and shot him. As the story goes, Reid�s aged mother then went to Col. Brandon�s camp for help. A volunteer party of twenty-five men was sent to raid the home of William Love. In the ensuing fight, William Sadler and English Bill [William Love] were killed but another of his sons, Thomas Love, also a Loyalist [Tory], escaped and fled to Mississippi where he befriended and married into the Chickasaw Indian tribe." [Reference: Excerpt from paper compiled by Donald E. Collins, "Descendants of Robert Love of Lancaster"] RE. THOMAS LOVE: 1780: July, "Col. Brandon sent out a scouting party to track down more of the Tories. One of his parties, under a Capt. Reid, shot and killed William Love�s son, James, as he attempted to flee across the Broad River at Love�s Ford, near the Chester-York line....When English Bill heard of his son�s death, he and William Sadler, a brother of James Love�s widow, went to the house of a neighbor to find Capt. Reid. They called Capt. Reid out of the house and shot him. As the story goes, Reid�s aged mother then went to Col. Brandon�s camp for help. A volunteer party of twenty-five men was sent to raid the home of William Love. In the ensuing fight, William Sadler and English Bill [William Love] were killed but another of his sons, Thomas Love, also a Loyalist [Tory], escaped and fled to Mississippi where he befriended and married into the Chickasaw Indian tribe." "Thomas Love was a Tory like his father and narrowly escaped through a briarpatch with his life when his father and brother-in-law were killed by Patriots in July 1780. He fled to Mississippi and settled among the Chickasaws in 1782. c. 1785: "About 1785 he m. Sallie Colbert, a daughter of James Logan Colbert in Colbert Co AL, where he lived before going to Pontotoc County. 1796: He led a quiet existence and assisted in marking the Creek-Chickasaw boundary in 1796. 1803: Another countryman, John McIntosh, appointed him administrator of the his estate in 1803. "Thomas later married second a full-blood Chickasaw woman named Emahota In-cun-no-mar. Following the Chickasaw tradition of the husband becoming a member of the wife's family, he became a member of the house of In-cun-no-mar. "Thomas fathered eight sons and five daughters. Seven of his sons became Chickasaw leaders, particularly during and after the removal to Indian Territory. 1830: Thomas Love died in 1830." [Reference: Excerpt from paper compiled by Donald E. Collins, "Descendants of Robert Love of Lancaster"] "1833....I bought a few horses and took them by land to Mississippi. Traveled through the Indian nation called on two of my relations, half breeds by the name of Love, Henry and Slone, they treated me friendly as other travellers, but did not care to claim kin as the Indians only claim kin by the Mother's side. I learned that a good many years ago a man by the name of James [Actually Thomas] Love and from what I could learn a cousin to my Father was returning home through the nation and a company of Choctowas came across him, robbed him and took his horse. He wandered on into the Chickisaws was taken sick and lay sometime and when he got well he took a young squaw to wife and remained in the Nation. "Henry had married a white woman and his children look as well as common children with the exception of the one who has an Indian Eye. Slone Love had a full blood Indian to wife and looked very Indianfied himself. I called also at what was called the station, where there was once a school. The mans name was Smith. Him and all his family was Presbyterians, he was the manager while the school was in operation, one of his daughter-in-laws was a half breed." [Source: "Journal of William Calhoun Love" 1872, in possession of Nancy De La Porte", transcribed by Donald Collins, and found at http://fly.hiwaay.net/~woliver/wc_Love.html] RE. THOMAS' SON, HENRY: These items are from (www.rootsweb.com/~marsha/church/chickmin.html, a Marshall Co., MS, genealogy site: "Records of the Church Session at Monroe Chickasaw Nation" which was established in 1823 by Hugh Dickson of the Presbytery of SC, commissioned by the Missionary Society of the Synod of SC and GA to establish a Mission: 1828: Mar. 22, "Mrs. Sarah Love applied for admission to the communion of the church. Her examination being sustained she was received." 1828: Aug. 24, "The persons admitted on Saturday were baptized. Also the following children....Amanda, John, Elvira, Charlotte, Frances, children of Henry and Sally Love." 1828: Aug. 25, "Mr. Henry Love a native....applied for admission to the church. this examination being satisfactory they were received." 1831: Apr. 30, "Baptized....David, son of Henry & Sarah Love."RE. THOMAS' SON, BENJAMIN:These items are from (www.rootsweb.com/~marsha/church/chickmin.html, a Marshall Co., MS, genealogy site: "Records of the Church Session at Monroe Chickasaw Nation" which was established in 1823 by Hugh Dickson of the Presbytery of SC, commissioned by the Missionary Society of the Synod of SC and GA to establish a Mission. Benjamin and some of the Colberts seem to have had trouble behaving! 1828: June 14, Benjamin Love, a "native" was admitted "to the privileges of the church on examination." 1828: July 6, Benjamin Love was baptized. It also mentions Manuel, Fanny and Esther; I do not know if they were of Ben's household since some members (such as slaves) listed did not have last names. 1828: July 6, "Session met for the examination of candidates & the following persons having given evidence of their change were admitted to the privileges of the church, Lotty Love...Chickasaws." 1829: July 5, Narcissa, dtr of Benjamin & Lotty Love, were baptized. 1832: July 1, Agnes, infant dtr of Benjamin and Letty Love was baptized 1834: Apr. 5, "The following persons having been under suspension from the privileges of the church for a length of time and giving no evidence of repentance...were solemnly ex-communicated....Nancy Colbert...Benjn. Love. 1839: Feb. 24, "The following members were dismissed to join the Holly Springs Church, viz., Mrs. Charlotte Love, native Chickasaw." Perhaps your Sarah was a grand daughter of one of the sons of Thomas Love. I am going to be out of town for 8 days, so will not be able to contribute any more at this time. Katheryn "Joyce G.

Then we find Ichabod in Camilus, Onondaga, NY in the 1820 census. I found a man by that name listed in the death notices of Walworth, Wayne Co, NY stating that he had died of Cancer on Feb. 29, 1848. (leap year?) He was 65 years of age at the time of his death. So if this is the same Ichabod Love in these records we would have the following stats: Ichabod Love born ca. 1783 (maybe RI.) He moved to New York before 1820. According to his death record he was a native and he was married. He died in 1848 in NY. Was he the son of John Love who was in Coventry, Kent, RI in 1790 and is this the same John who later moved to Onondaga, NY where we find him on the 1820 census. Lots of questions....do you have any of the answers? Thanks, Shirley
