Hi EC! Yes, I'd like to hear from the Painter girls who remained w/the Indians. On the Cherokee website, the webmaster stated that there were records kept of most births. Could be something to investigate, since the name Chief Killbuck was mentioned in the VA history books. There were Painters in Botetourt Cnty, VA...one named Charles, which is said to be the father of my Peter Painter, b 1815 somewhere in VA. My CA cousins do not have any solid documentation on how they came to know that Charles is Pete's father. Many families from Botetourt Cnty went to Ross Cnty, OH; this is where my P.Painter lived in 1850(the earliest I have found him).
Good to hear from you again, thanks for writing. Neva
