There are traditions of Indian or Cherokee ancestry among the Maynards and many other families in Eastern Kentucky; however, proof is lacking in almost all cases.Maynor, Mainer, etc. are common names among the numerous "Lumbee" Indians of Robeson County, NC; but even here there is no agreement as to what tribes those now called Lumbee (named after the Lumber River) actually descend from.
