Constant, His brother William Constant and their relative Sarah Mashburn got money from the cherokees til they died.And when they died their spouses were getting paid.So if none of us are indian you explain to me how they were getting paid! I'm sure it wasn't a mercy ruling.The lawyer really doesn't mean anything to me either but before you run your mouth about sarah mashburn or any of her kin,you'd better get your facts straight. If there was no authority stating they were cherokee why did they give her a roll number?I've traced back to the 1500's on the Delozier side and to almost the same time period on the poindexter's , Pledges,and Constants! But since I have a white man last name and you don't all the info I have compiled is meaningless and yours is correct,right? So instead of telling Elizabeth to get over it maybe you need to keep your mouth shut til all the facts are in on your side of the table.
