I am researching a Thompson family with Native American lineage.My Thompson's mixed with the Doyle's/Dial's in west LA.Pokahuntas (varied spelling) Dial (Doyle) married Alexander "Alec" Thompson.Her sister Liza married Alec's brother Wade.My husband's father, Claude Thompson, seemed to remember a variety of tribes being mentioned and is not sure which one they claimed heritage through.Apache and Cherokee were the two main tribes he has discussed with me.Alec and Pokahuntas are buried near or in Oakdale, LA.Mainly lived in and around Beauregard Parish.Alec was the son of Edmund Thompson and Martha Howard but things are fuzzy before that.Thanks for your help.
