Lucy, have you checked out Native American registration rolls like the Guion-Miller rolls for Vickerys? That is a prominent name in those rolls with a lot of genealogy, sometimes back to the first white ancestor. Also see the various Cherokee family histories published over the years. > Hi > Can you tell me if there are any Vickerys or > Victorys listed I am still > trying to find my Vickery line in Bedford Co __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
