Carleen, I wonder if that is why I am having trouble finding my Taylor ancestor. His name was THOMAS JEFFERSON TAYLOR, SR. He was born in 1832 in STEWART COUNTY, TN and if I am not mistaken that was Cherokee and Choctaw country before the whites settled it. My grandfather had dark hair and my aunt, (my mom's sister) has brown hair and brown eyes. She is completely different in looks than my mom. My mom was a green-eyed blonde as a child ( this being her Irish/Scotish/Scandinavian blood). All my kids were born with the blue eyes and either blonde or very light brown hair. I have often wondered about that. Is there anyway to find out if he was part Indian? Cathy Psalms 108:1-4 "My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast! I will sing and make melody! Awake, O my soul! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn! I will give thanks to the thee, O Lord, among the peoples, I will sing praises to thee among the nations. For they steadfast love is great above the heavens, thy faithfulness reaches to the clouds."(RSV)
