A Cherokee Legacy

Remembering Our Native American Heritage

Beschreibung

Previously released as "Big Tiger's Granddaughters", "A Cherokee Legacy: Remembering Our Native American Heritage" is a newly edited work centered on the genealogical maternal and paternal lineages of Jamie Whitfield Sewell, a proud and lifelong citizen of the Cherokee Nation. It delves into the complex past of the Cherokee Nation using historic documents and archival resources, sourced from many earlier works and ancestry projects on Cherokee genealogy and history, especially the essential research of Dr. Emmet Starr. In addition, we have added information obtained from scholarly books, articles, and research papers, and have accessed documents from tribal, state, federal, and other archival or manuscript collections. This book follows Jamie's ancestors on the trials of the Trail of Tears as the Cherokee were forcibly expelled from their original homelands to rebuild a new Cherokee Nation in the western lands. In this work we meet Jamie's ancestral lineages well known to students of Cherokee history, such as the Tiger, Smith, Rogers, and Adair family surnames documented generation by generation. We meet exceptional historical Cherokee ancestors of Jamie such as Gahoga Foster Adair, Tiana Rogers, Chief Cabin Smith, and Chief Big Tiger, individuals whose names are well-known to Cherokee history and whose memory remain an inspiration to many. About the authors, Hodalee C. S. Sewell (Muscogee Creek/Cheraw) is a researcher and writer, and an alumnus of Rogers State University Claremore Oklahoma, he writes on identity, with a focus on race and culture. Jamie Whitfield Sewell(Cherokee/Onondaga) has worked for over a decade for the Cherokee Nation as a foster parent through the Indian Child Welfare Act. Both of her parents were like her, enrolled citizens of the Cherokee Nation.
