Surnames: Mitchell/Gobble Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GBC.2ACE/242.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi Trisha, well we are related - your great-great Grandmother, Alma and my father, Fred Mitchell were brother and sister. So I guess that makes us third cousins. Have been tracking the family for quite some time now and had never heard of that about the Gobble name change. I knew there was indian in our family cause my grandmother - Nellie Gobble - had a brother (Doc - Edwin) that looked "VERY" indian. I had heard there was Cherokee back there but could not track it down. If you send me your home address I will send you some information that I have collected. Looking forward to hearing from you. Your cousin Melanie -
