Glad I found this website.
Larry, I just used the same arguments to Joanne on the ancesrty.com Melungeon board! I had no idea you were posting the same thing over here I was posting over there a couple of weeks ago! :)Very interesting . . . there she was arguing that Gideon Gibson's family was NOT mixed race and that his family was not related to the Melungeon Gibson's in SW Va and NE Tn. I think they are 2 broanches of the same family.
She also has spent a lot of time on the Cherokee boards arguing that many Melungeons are really Cherokee and used as her proof rejecred applications from the Miller-Guion rolls. She neglected to say the people she used as "proof" were REJECTED because they showed no real relationship with the NORTH CAROLINA Cherokee, but her anger was towards the Oklahoma Cherokee who had nothing to do with them being rejected by the North Carolina Cherokee. She attempted to deceive as she did not mention the primary source of hte material she was referring to. I happened to mention thoswe questions asked were similar to the Questions asked on a miller-Guion Application, and looked up the roll number of the person she was quoting. A Cherokee genealogist who posts there often had a copy of those applications and looked up the roll number/surname, and quoted from it. Had she been unbiassed in her research she would have mentioned these things in her comment, but she just hoped no one would notice.
I suspect those people on the rejected rollsmight be part Indian -- but they are NOT Cherokee -- probably more closely related to the Catawba than Cherokee . . .
I noticed you mentioned a Mr. Humphrey associated with Gideon Gibson I think . . . If you will look in South Carolina there is a Humphrey Gibson also associated with Gideon. My family were Waylands and they were in South Carolina and neighbors to Gibson's descended from Gidoen's group. Later my Waylands were in Scott County, in SW Va (1790s -- my Wayland's are prominently spoken of in the minutes of Stoney Creek Primitive Baptist Church) with next door neighbors being Gibson's. In 1815 my Wayland ancestors are in Arkansas and my direct ancestor William Wayland has a Gibson next door to him again. And a Humphrey Gibson lives nearby, just as a generation earlier a Humphrey Gibson lived nearby in South Carolina in the 1780s. There were 2 Waylands (first cousins to my wayland ancestor Sarah An Wayland) in 1832-1836 who were soldiers at Fort Gibson in Indian Territory (Cherokee Nation, present day Oklahoma).
I took an autosomal DNA test and I am tri-racial. I am not federaly enrolled -- but we have always known we were "part" Indian. Being part Black was a surprize, but I suspected it might be possible even before the DNA test was taken. I believe my Nevil Wayland's (1754-1806) wife was a Gibson, but we have no proof of it -- just evidence. This is NOT the Nevil Jr spoken of in the minutes of Stoney Creek Church -- Nevil Jr is his son. This is confusing as in Arkansas Nevil Jr is known as Nevil Sr.
Good to meet you Larry. I will read many posts here.
