I am a white Exum but my father had always told me that we had black ancestory coming from the slavery days. My family line started from the creek indians in which to what I have been told and read about the creek indians they did have black slaves that eventually did take the indian name of Exum or married one of the creek indians. My mother is german, cherokee, and Irish. As today I have white Exum relatives that are married to African Americans which makes their children Exum's. I have a cousin that's married to a Spanish American woman. So it makes them an Exum by blood. White & black Exum's too me is nonsense. If you could access records to way back when I think a lot of people would be surprised what they find. Just my intake on things, don't mean to offend anyone. Thanks!
