Avey/Cornstalk families
I am in an all out search for my heritage. I know I don't have enough indian in me to live on a reservation but I want to learn about my roots. I have traced back to John Avey Sr. I have a lot of info about him and his children and their families. I need to find some more about his brother Peter though. I know that their fathers name was Peter also. Peter Sr. was chief before his son. All I really know about Peter is that he married Mary Adams...a part of one of the first white familes in Searcy Co., that either his or his fathers indian name was Wynepuechsika, that his father settled near the present day Chillicothe at age 10 and that their tribe was called Chillicothe. I need to know more about their family. I would appriciate any info anyone has. Thanks and please get in contact with me.
