This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JYVBAIB/1264.2 Message Board Post: I live in Washington State, My Grandmother was Nettie Mary Ware who lived in Seattle but, has ties to Oklahoma. Any help? My grandmother was also related to Carl Albert, speaker of the house, part cherekee indian.

Carl Albert is a descendent of both Malachi Ware who came to Marion co IL in 1818 and Samuel Young who was the "first settler in Marion co IL" he came here in 1812. I see in these posts that Carl Albert is part Cherokee. Can someone tell me who the Cherokee ancestors were?? Thanks J. Ray Young
