My great great grandmother, Emma Orilla Choate Goode, was said to be 100% Cherokee Indian.  I found that quite interesting.  The story is that at one time she might have been eligible for some free land if she could prove her indian heritage.  However, she could not find the document that would prove she was indian.  My great aunt says that was the only time she saw her mother cry.  That is what really piqued my interest.  However, researching indian ancestry is proving to be quite difficult.  But even so, I am hooked.

This project of mine will continue to be a work in progress. I do it to exchange information on my family lines with other researchers. Family history is truly a fascinating hobby!
