For many many years I have been phoning, emailing, meeting new cousins and we share so much to understand how we all connect; which has been difficult because the names were used repeatedly and had to be sorted out very carefully. Gathering at older churches with much older family cemeteries lost in the woods out back surrounded by 200 yr old barbwire and fallen trees, cleaning and recording our elders' tombstones add a teary touch to complete our connection to each other.....We learn that the early pioneers often married a cousin or neighbor; so many others in old history books of Early Settlers in each county & each state as the nation began with many others seeking freedom; fighting for freedom & fighting to protect their families & home, making us proud, then I learn that my BFF Linda McClanahan, former classmate is my cousin as we share the same GGG grandma Sellers; then my Grandma Broadway had a brother Bill and he is connected to my friend in the above photo. MY DNA shows we come from many nations to search many states here for our place of comfort & peace. Traveling for many years among many Tribes, my ancestors led our path to my birthplace in Broken Arrow, Tulsa, Oklahoma which was a very popular place of my relatives, then we moved on into Arizona where many indian reservations still exist and my Cherokee mother was so welcomed and she learned a lot from our many different neighbors' cultures. Dad said his mother's parents came from two different tribes originating in Kentucky 1800 that we can see, then migrating into Indiana and Arkansas about 1820. Stories, Censuses, Documents exist in each States' archives telling us even more. My Broadway friend in the picture was also growing up in Oklahoma and his son is still there in the Shawnee Tribe. Yet so many had to live and grow up as white, I have found Dad's aunt ( his mother's sis) as Indian on the census and all of her indian children with a white husband who was not afraid to say that he married an indian lady. My Dad also said it.
