wonder about my indian nanna’s
Just returned from a museum recounting Texas history and the Indians. I left there feeling hmmm I don’t know but I was wondering if my american indian grandmothers that lived in the late 1700’s and early 1800’s were captured by white men and kept as wives. I just know when they died they could not be buried in the "white" cemetary.
Big dinner gig tonight, bigger one tomorrow night. Gotta get all purdied up!
Find peace in the knowledge that your greatgrandmothers are in heaven and those who disallowed their burial in a “white” cemetary are not. If you know their names and tribe, you should be able to get some records. Be well, dear friend.

we can’t trace my indian side past my grandmother, as she was raised on a reservation in florida.. she was there in the early 1900’s.. lots of records lost.. good luck.. btw – purdied up, bet you do-do that very well, and that it doesn’t take much work… hugs

All I know of my native ancestor is she was called “Indian Annie” in the late 1700’s in NJ. Wish I could know more about her, but those are the only records we were able to find. It’s sad that we can’t even find her tribe.
