Hi Jack,
Thanks for your reply.I find your possible connections very intriguing but I can not poove a them.I neglected to mention that my Cherokee great grand mother Susie Lillian Hayes Waller was actually adopted by Thomas and Kate Crutchfield who had no children of their own.George Waller was a deputy sherif in Indian Territory working for Thomas Crutchfield when he met Susie when visiting the Crutchfield home.I believe these Crutchfields were part Indian but I cannot poove it.They were buried in a small obscure cemetery in Oklahoma together with a known Cherokee family.In addition to the employee/employer relation George had with Thomas there could have been a family connection as well but that is just a guess.
I should mention that since my original posting I have found a new cousin through whom I have uncovered the real identiy of George Wesley Waller's parents. They are Henry Waller and Eliza Jane Bea! (She was originally Eliza Jane Bell..she was a widow William Bea)
