Well lets see. I grew up in the place they lived in Tennessee so di my mother and all of my mothers side of the tree. I have visited many graves and heard many stories. For one thing my great grandfather told my grandparents last year about he remembers his grandfather "Harvey" (David Harvey Bentley) living on a Cherokee reservation in Middle Tennessee. Harvey's son George, my great grandfathers uncle, looked just like an Indian in every way possible. My grandmother who attended his funeral. I have seen his grave.
