Trying to locate any information regarding John C. Scott circa 1870 and wife Rosella Wilson circia 1873 with a daughter Alena Ethel Scott who was my great-grandmother. She was still living when I was a teenager and I recall many stories she told me about being of Cherokee descent. I’d love to find evidence one way or the other!
