Hello everyone ... i am new to the forum... just wanted to tell you a little about myself.... I am from East TN just across the state line from NC and not too far from VA. I currently live in CO. I even pulled my stint in the military. I have always wondered about who my ancestors are but have never done more than talk to to the family about it... i do know my grandmother who was a williams was one of three daughters of Walt Williams i also know that my grand mother her mother gave the land for a small hospital in the area where we are from which is now sunset gap community center and preschool this is the side i am supposed to be black foot on... i also know that my grandfather a williamson was moved out of the cosby national park when it was made a park... he was actually born there and you can still see whats left of the old family home if you walk in far enough and he was 1/4 cherokee beyond that i just know that i have cherokee blood in my family from both the houk and howard sides as well any way guess i am rambling
if anyone knows more about these people please let me know i can give you more names if that will help
thank you
have a wonderful day

Welcome Sherri, glad you found your way here. That's very nice the old homestead will be left untouched that way. What county in TN is that?

Maybe some of the genealogists around here can get you interested in poking back into some earlier lines. It sounds like it might be a well documented line.

Thank you for the welcome. it is Sevier and Cocke counties in TN, in Cosby TN, so if any one knows anything about it let me know
