David Caudill married Sina Walker in 1807 in Surry/old Wilkes Co. The name Sina Walker appears in the Native American registry as a Western Seminole. There is no proof that this is the same person. Also, it is common for the old families in NC to claim Cherokee blood. More recent scholarship attributes many of these legends to Melungeon ancestry which is less desireable. The Cherokees have an index of tribal members that you can access through the tribal leaders.
