Paul Phelan
Query: I am trying to find information about my Great-Great-Great Grandfather. I am told his name was Matt Walker and he was born in 1824 in North carolina. Although I saw a note that may have refered to him that read “Matt Walkingstick 1824” He married an English woman I am told by the name of Jane Haynes. My G-G Grandmother or his daughter Susan Edner was born in Franklin County AR in 1873 so I am assuming he lived there at that time. Susan married a gentleman by the name of Green Berry Stubblefield and they later moved to Jenks, OK around 1910. Anyone know about these Walkers or Walkingsticks?

Margot Nancy Malone
Query: I am trying to find information on my fathers family. My dad told me he was 1/2 cherokee and that that made me 1/4. His father was fullblood. My dad used his deceased brothers name, Robert Lee, and his stepfathers last name ,Malone, to get into the military to become a scout/sharp shooter for the cavalry somewhere between 1910 and 1920. He would have been 13 at the time. He was born in 1897 in Guthrie Kentucky. He told me his real was named Arthur Cleveland Webb, and that he was named after a president like his brothers , George Washington Webb, and Robert E. Lee Webb. All his family supposedly came from Kentucky, Tenn, N. Carolina, and Oklahoma territories. I remember trying to cross the border one time when I was about 13, we were detained for hours because my father refused to say he was a united states citizen…he kept saying he was a Real American and an Irish American. he was very proud of his heritage from his mother and father. His dad died when he was three in St. Louis, Mo. When Robert Webb, probably 1900, died dad’s mother gave all the boys to an orphanage. Dad ran away at thirteen. She then remarried to John Garfield Malone and went to live in Ill. My dad was a career soldier. He said the Army was the only place that would accept him as a half breed. One summer we went to live on the Lumbee Indian Reservation in the late 50’s when I was a little girl. It was one of the happiest and best times of my life. I hope one day to find some information that will confirm my fathers assertions, but til then my heart and spirit are with my people always. If you have any information please let me know. Thank you! Margot

Apart from that I have nothing else but a photograph. Donnie Mann was married to Walter Nunn and they moved to Oklahoma and then to California where she died.

Query: This has been keeping me up nights lately. I have known in my heart since a little girl that there was something different about me. Everything from the way I look at things, think about things, how I react to things etc… When I started asking questions about ancestry no one really knows anything. No records, when you go a couple of generations back. My grandma use to ask questions no one could answer, she knew the features in her family were different, and she believed it to be Indian because where we are from is a huge Cherokee territory (Alabama). But everyone was very vague and just said “Black Dutch” “alot on both sides” they told her. so in doing research i found that this was a term used by Native Americans who could pass for white and who were intemarried with whites to escape persecution. In speaking with a lady who has a organization for Cherokee people, she explained that it would be hard for me the trace back, because Native Americans did not keep records and unless they were on the rolls it was going to be very difficult, because the ones who stayed behind had to pass themselves off as white and could not put down there true culture for obvious reasons. So now i am kinda up against a brick wall, and need some suggestions, help, anything… this is just something that has bothered me for as long as i can remember. I need closure and to actually feel like I belong somewhere, to celebrate my heritage fully. I know that may sound funny, but if someone knew there was someting missing culturally, then found out they were Spanish, they would begin to learn the language, understand the culture, teach their children their heritage,etc. that’s all I want to do!
