As some of you might already know, Ancestry.com this week is posting Georgia Cherokee Land Grants for 1838 on their site. I believe it is free for 10 days if you don't already subscribe. It lists the following: Number District Name Residence County Comment 231 Fourth William H. 19th Bryan Second Shuman Section Cherokee ______________________________________________________________ 194 24th, 2nd Martin 19th Bryan granted previous section Shuman to the first day of Cherokee January 1838 _________________________________________________________________ Does this shed any light for us who are descendents of Martin Shuman? Also, I had asked this around the holidays and know that everyone was busy but, My great grandgrandmother was Susanna Phillips wife of JJB Shuman does anyone know anything of her family. There are 54 Phillips names on this Georgia Cherokee Land list also. Thanks for any information that you might have. Also does anyone know the maiden name of Harriet Shuman wife of Joseph M. Shuman and also if the Martha married to Martin Henry maiden name was Nix or if not what was it. Thanks, Marie
