I certainly don't claim to know all about the Hefleys, but my late Grandpa Cecil Hefley told me it would be exremly difficult to trace our roots back too far. We all of a sudden "appear" on American records because for quite a while no one was interested in recording Native American ancestry. My Grandpa said he was pretty darn sure he was at least 1/2 Cherokee. I have 1 picture of his mother Mary (Molly) Noble, and there is no arquing that she is an Indian. I admit my Grandpa could be wrong, but his family hailed from Ark, Ok, Tn, and Indian Terr. So maybe that is a hint to the difficulty of tracing our roots.
