Hi,
Steven,as far as the name LIGHTFOOT being an Indian name--it very well can be...for my ggggrandmother is said to have been...espically with her first name of Morningstar and her Christian name of Rebbeca..I was told that it was Blackfoot tribe,which were rovers down in the valleys of the Ohio, and surrounding areas (from out west) Lightfoot could have been given to an Indian Family just like a lot of them were,as slaves brought over from Africa were given American names,espically if names were hard to spell or made no sense to the Americans.
