I am a descendant of William S? Post.I have one source that says that he was from Scotland.He married a Cherokee Indian woman who had been married before to a Levi Robbins.Her name was Elizabeth Pettit (they had one son --joshua Robbins.Elizabeth Pettit and William Post had 3 children:Tatnall Holt Post, John Marion Post, and Mary Arminda Post Gladney.
When Elizabeth Pettit died, William remarried a white lady Elizabeth Rebecca Chapman from either N. or S.C.That deed was probably right.They had three children: John Beaver Post who married Caroline Woodall (Cherokee) who lived in Cherokee, Co, OK at a community southwest of Tahlequah, OK (my ggrandparents); Algerine Post who married Joshua Robbins (Elizabeth Petitt's son); and Rebecca Caroline Post who married Benjamin Frankin Robbins.I will help you with anything that I can. I got most of my information from the Dawes Cherokee Roll.
