Feb. or July, 1850, Tenn., Married Lottie, June 2,1870 in Overton Co. Tenn., d. Duke Young Cemetary, Jackson Co. Tenn. (these were my great x2 grandparents) 5.

Query: James Monroe Goodwin was born in Georgia in 1823 and married a Sarah Jane Sweten around 1864 or 1865. Sarah Jane Sweten was a Cherokee from Indiana born in 1828 and had been married to a Mr. Todd prior to marrying James Monroe Goodwin. I have reason to believe that James Monroe Goodwin was also full or part Cherokee as the state he came from (Georgia) was where the Trail of Tears started and he moved to Arkansas (around Salem, Arkansas) around that time. I am seeking information on both Sarah Jane Sweten and James Monroe Goodwin. I understand that descendants of James Monroe Goodwin claimed their head rights for property in Oklahoma and I would think that this would be of record in the files in Tahlelquah. If that is the case I would hope I would be able to find out a lot more about the ancestors to James Monroe and Sarah Jane.

LaVelda Faull
Query: Samuel Volner born ca 1750-60 married a Cherokee woman named Cynthie Knife. Samuel was born in Germany and the first record that I have been able to find on him is in Barren County, Kentucky in 1808. He lived in that part that later was taken to create Allen County and lived on or near Long Creek and Trammel Creek. Because of Walker’s line this area later became part of Macon County, Tennessee. He was a charter member of the Testament Primitive Baptist Church near Gap of the Ridge, Tennessee in 1812. His name is sometimes written as “Walner” or “Wolner”. According to the 1906 Eastern Cherokee Applications of his descendents, he was recognized as a member of the Cherokee Nation due to his marriage to Cynthie Knife, a full-blooded Cherokee. The applications state that both Samuel and Cynthia died before the Trail of Tears. Their children William, Samuel, Thomas, and Benjamin lived in Tennessee; however, I can not locate any of the Volners on any census whatsoever in Tennesee or Kentucky until 1840 when William Volner was found on the Robertson County, Tennessee census. Family tradition states that some of his children were born in Sweetwater, Tennessee (Monroe County). I have been unable to find hardly anything on these folks, nor can I find them on any Cherokee census records. I know that William Volner married Mary Polly Weeks (Wix) in 1817 in Sumner County, Tennessee (now Macon County) and that they were for a time in Johnson County, Illinois where they signed a petition along with William’s father Samuel. Samuel was on the 1820 Johnson County, Illinois Census (at the end of the census in an addendum list). Samuel’s grandson, John Volner, who lived in Texas County, Missouri, states in his Cherokee Application that his father, William Volner left Robertson County, Tennessee in 1851 and journeyed to Turnback Mountain where he stopped “with the rest of the refugees” and turned back to Union County, Illinois where he intended to “make crop” and then go on to the Nation, but he stayed there. Where is Turnback Mountain”? Who was Cynthie Knife? There was a Cherokee listed on the 1817 Cherokee Census listed at Sail Creek called “The Knife”. Were Cherokee children given as their last name the first name of their father? How do you say ‘Knife’ in Cherokee?
