Emma Fawbush, daughter of William and Mary Fawbush
I am looking for information about my grandmother's side of the Fawbush family. She was Emma Roxie Fawbush; born September 1896 in Lebanon, Russell County, VA. Her father was William Fawbush. Her mother was Mary, maybe Mary E.
Would like to find out her maiden name. since I do not have it.
Family history has it that Mary, at the very least, was Indian, but we aren't sure the tribe. I think Cherokee myself, but have no documentation. Mary supposedly looked very Indian, as did my grandmother.
Emma also had a sister, name unknown, who married an Indian and went to live on a reservation, in the Carolinas I think. Grandmother also insisted we were related to Pochahontas.
Any info would be greatly appreciated about this Fawbush line. I think William came from Tennessee, but again, am not certain. Thanks for anyhelp, Sharon
