My great grandfather, James Annias Dowell was 1/8 Cherokee. He was born in 1835 in Macomb McDonough Co., IL. His mother's name was Sarah and she was born in TN. I think that his father was also a George W. Dowell, who was in McComb, teaching in the first school established there in 1830/31. I think that the family was in Polk Co., Mo in the 1840 census, but you know the 1840 census only tells you the name of the head of household. In 1850 Sarah Dowell was living there with the Elijah Mitchell family. She was born in TN. James married Louisa Jane Rector who was born in Bolivar, Polk Co. I will watch this site to see if we can connect. Thelma K
