I've just recently subscribed to this and been intending to post my own line to see if someone might help. Hope I'm doing this right to respond to this query; feel free to tell me if I should do something differently. I am only familiar with what I think might connect for you as I was pursuing George Washington Tucker in Upshur Co, TX thinking he might be my line as well. There is a Geo. Washington Tucker Sr. there who could be father to your George? I found Geo & Malinda in 1870 Upshur Co tonight also in Gilmer District where the other Geo is; was listed as a 32 yr old farmer from AL. Malinda, 29, from Mississippi; Florence, 6, Mary, 4, E...?? can't make out 2 yr old female's name. Though it turn out Geo Sr would not be my grt-grt-gf's father as I 1st thought possible, if I do tie into this line somewhere as it looks so likely with all the Upshur Co connections, etc, this will be very interesting if yours are on the Dawes Rolls. I've always been told I had Indian blood in my Bradshaw family and perhaps it's actually off the Tucker line of the Bradshaws. Geo Sr. was b. 1810 in GA to Simeon and Nancy Dunn Tucker per the info just recently shared with me. Geo's wife was Lucinda Jones. More of the family was also in Upshur Co in the 1860-80 census reports. Geo Sr. is buried in the Simpsonville Cemetery there in Upshur Co. He was in Upshur 1870 & '80 census reports; was thinking I saw him in '60 as well but not seeing that now. If your Geo. born 1838 turns out to be son of Geo Sr. I have the info that the lady shared with me that goes back a ways.

Sandra, let me digest this info. Strange you mention the indian blood issue. I have often thought my grandmother, Tucker line, had high cheekbone features that made me wonder if she also had indian blood. Will try to put info together .
