Dear List,

Since getting my computer nearly three years ago I have learned so much.
Maybe our families claimed Cherokee for various reasons. I don't really have
the answers. But I have found some of my surnames on Seminole lists and my
Jordans lived in the same area that the Pamunkeys did. That doesn't mean
squat though. I don't know if I will ever run across anything to prove my
African American or my Native ancestry. Right now at this point in my life I
am not looking to be able to do so. I have some pictures posted at the site
that Charlene set up. I am sorry but I haven't had time to post them to the
other site for the Webtv users. I think now would be a good time for us all
to post our surnames. What do you guys think?

Jennifer
Surnames: Marks, Mundy, Jordan, Thornsbury, Cline, Davis, Fuller, and
Williams
