Sandra Sawyer Banks >> In my Native American line I have a Rhoda Gertrude Sawyer who married David John Fraz(i)er Watters, their son, Joseph Raymond Watters married Dora Fields, and she was the great great granddaughter of Chief Richard Fields of the Cherokee Nation. That's the long way around for sure and not legitimate in any way shape or form, but a connection nonetheless. :) This above is from my father's line. My mother was a Sawyer, and I haven't seen much, if any, Native American blood in there so far either....yet. Her line comes from William Sawyer, 1613, of England. Jill Watters Rains Gadsden, AL
