Michael Williams
Query: I am searching for information about the name of Lish around 1800. All that I have found was that he came to America from France. His name was possibly De’Lisle. I have been told that he married a Cherokee woman whose name no one knows. He was rumored to be a horse thief. When the local law found him he changed his name to Lish. From there he left his wife and moved west. The whites would not accept her after he left nor would the Cherokees. It has been said that after that she commited suicide by drowning herself in a water tower. The family geneolgy of the Lish stops right at 1800. I am trying to find any possible link to the Cherokee nation with my family.

Ron Marlin
Query: Picaman, Payne, Foster, Crain: Looking for information about my grandmother Caroline S. Picaman, her mother Susanna M. Picaman who was on the 1896 Dawes Roll as Susana Picaman, Coo. Dist. Susanna’s father Cicero M. Payne and wife Caroline Payne. I found Cicero and Caroline Payne on the 1880 census of Cherokee Nation Delaware District and also on the Old Settler Roll 33931. Caroline Payne’s maiden name was Foster and her parents were John and Nancy Foster. Also, I know that Martha Ann Payne is related to me somehow, because I remember my grandmother telling me when I was just a small boy but I can’t remember how. I did find her in the 1851 Drennen & Chapman Eastern Cherokee Roll but it was on a surname page of that roll and there was no one else with that surname on it. My grandmother also told me that Martha’s Indian name was Crain. This is all I can remember and, as previously mentioned, I was very young when told so memory might not be totally accurate. My parents divorced when I was 11 years old and my father and I were not close after that. I am Cherokee on my father’s side and would really like to know more about my “roots”. I was very close to my grandmother before she died, but she died when I was very young. My children are in elementary and high school and want to know more about their Cherokee Heritage too. We have just recently gotten our CDIB cards but want to know more about our family and our Cherokee Heritage. We live in Kansas City, Missouri and don’t know where to go here to find out this information. Any information on my family would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone has any suggestions on Native American groups or centers in Kansas City, Missouri please contact me.

Query: Minnie Ann Fuquay: I am looking for information about Minnie Ann Fuquay (could be spelled Fuqua or Fuquey). She was b: 2/15/1869 d:5/31/1944. We have always been told that her mother was a full-blooded Cherokee. We think her parents were Franklin & Elizabeth Fuquay. Franklin would have been born between 1834 & 1836. Elizabeth would have been born between 1839 & 1841. We do not have Elizabeth’s maiden name. They lived in or around Rockingham County in 1860. Minnie Ann Fuquay married Milton Hill b:7/23/1866 d:8/29/1923.
