and all of my elders have passed on. All trails lead right back to Dragging Canoe and Sarah, but I keep running across conflicting 'descendent' webpages. I also read somewhere that Dragging Canoe had many wives. Could that be why there are so many conflicting names? I'm stumped on where to go with this.

Hi, I am researching my wife's heritage and ran across the claim that a lady named "Mary Polly Brown" was a great-granddaughter of Chief Dragging Canoe (who was married to George Hart). Does anyone have information that would support this claim

My daughter lives across the street from the old carter mansion in elizabethton, tn. the house is on the watauga river. john carter and his son landon carter owned the house with family. it ismother, etc.). I am also interested in knowing of any information anybody has on other possible mothers of Charles ROARK's children. Finally, anybody who has done research on this line is of interest. DNA may help solve this question of the heritage of Abigail.

Oh I guess my other post did not go through. Abigail is listed as my 6th great grandmother on my family tree. her and charles' daughter jane married john pope and they had a child named george pope who married nellie lewis who had a child named Nathan pope who married Anne Gibson and they had a child named tennessee pope who married james alfred wicker and they had a child named Paris Wicker who had a child named Mark wicker who is my grandfather
