Cindy,
I did some digging into the Native American connection of the Bennights, and I found out the connection is Choctaw, not Cherokee, according to the Dawes Rolls.

On Card: MRC6255
John W. Bennight Parent M
Mary Bennight Parent F
Susan I Bennight Parent F
John H. Bennight Minor M 54yrs old 1/4 Choctaw
Daniel E Bennight Minor M 19 yrs 1/8 Choctaw
Annie B Bennight Minor F 15 yrs 1/8 Choctaw
Roscoe H Bennight Minor M 13yrs 1/8 Choctaw

I am related to Minnie Eula Bennight whose father is Thomas Howard Buchannon Bennnight. Is he related to any of these folks?
