Yeah! I love tracing my ancestors. I've got one maternal line back to the 1400's, but the others I've only gotten back to the late 1700's. And of course, all those brick walls!

With the assistance of a distant English cousin - I have one paternal line back to 1600s England.

And the requisite brick walls, of course - darn those courthouse fires!

Midnight blue!
3-What are your top three favorite movies? TV Shows?
Dances with Wolves, Hidalgo, and The Black Stallion!
ER, Smallville, and anything on Animal Planet.
4-What person in history would you like to meet and why?
Nan-ye-he ghi-gau AKA Nancy Ward... I'd love to ask her about the battle with the Muskogees where she picked up her husbands rifle and fought in his place. OR about her rescue of the white woman,and whatever became of her, since I can't find out!!!
5-What did your class ring look like from high school (assuming you had one)?
Yes I had one!
That is, until I lost it in the freezer at the grocery store! It was paladium...with a sunburst pink stone (my birthstone) with an engraved silver cross in the center of the stone. On the sides were the famous orange hurricane and the year 1977!

Oh wow...that's a tough one! They're all interesting! But my native american heritage is the most fascinating...and I have found a couple of outlaws! My ancestors migrated from NC to TN in the late 1700's and were of Native American,Scoth-Irish, and German descent.




That should keep you thinking for a while.
Oh yeah...It did!!
