Hi Burdette,
Thank you so much for this info; have tried the site that
you listed and fail to find the same???
I am working w/33 spellings of the surname and trying my
best to get back to my WEELDON ggrandfather, who was a slave; have been working at this for 13yrs w/o making a
connection.
If this DAVID is the same person I am seeking, He very likely could have been passing for white, and therefore
the English listing; find that some I suspect of being kin
are listed as octoroon.
I would be most grateful if you do come across the name of
the relative and send the same to me.
Burdette, how kind of you to help others; thank you again;
My line is indeed a challenge; I keep thinking that if I can find ANY info of my ggrandmother's NATIVE line the puzzle pieces will fall into place; unfortunately, the NA
ancestry is even more obscure.
Warm regards,
carol wheeldin warren.
