So as far as I know, she was a party to the treaty of 1835-46 and resided in Rabun Co Ga, in 1835-51. None of my ancestors were ever slaves and I pass as white. Yours very truly, /s/Eliza Tanksley That is it for this one, but read on below something similiar. --------------------------------------------------------- I took some editorial leeway and separated the wording as it was all bunched up.
