IS THAT YOUR MAIDEN NAME? I know my Grandfathers Mother (MY gR GRANMOTHER)Elizabeth Margaret Honn/Horn, had relatives that were named Casper, and they were connected the Sioux(or Blackfeet Nation) supposedly, and we could possibly connect here, as she had an alias of Maggie Jones. She also went by Margaret Elizabeth Horn, Maggie Hon, Elizabeth Honn, Maggie Louise Jones, Magga, M. E. Honn, E. M. Horn, and MARGARET C. HON., BUT SHE ALWAYS HAD HER CHILDREN WITH HER! She marr several times,PROBABLY TO A DAVID JONES, NEAR PICWAY OHIO. THEN, Mikel Hawse, and they went to Kansas, after they married then came back to Pike/Jackson/ and Adams Co., Ohio. When Mikel died, she marr my gr grandfather, Andrew "BIRD" NEWMAN, when he died she marr John Shoemaker. The she married Walter Dodds. I know they had western connections in Kansas, Mo., and also in Ark., and Ill., Ind. She didn't want her children removed to Oklahoma, and she had many alias. SHE HAD SEVERAL DOB'S! Also, She had connections also in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I have found three of her decendents in the final rolls. My Mothers side has 6 Indian lines, and they are in the rolls also, but not all in the final rolls. My Connection to TECUMSEH is thru Bazzel Newman, and possible more of the Thomas Newman decendents. It reads like a maze. I remember going to "the INDIAN Newmans" house with my grandparents when I was young, and I too lived 73 MY WHOLE LIFE.AND ABT 2 MILES FROM NEWMANS CURVE AND JAY BIRD Rd. before I went to school. I have a family photo of my grandparents with the name Thomas Newman on the back, like he may have taken it, and sent it to them. My grandfather was the caretaker of the Newman Cemetary, for many years, and I used to be his assistant! ha! no I was just in the way! I do all of my genealogy in honor of him!
