Chickasaw Nation (This completes the set in the library):
From Borderland Books:
Cherokee (Mr. Bowen's latest transcriptions from the records of the Dawes Commission concern files of persons claiming entitlement to a portion of the Cherokee tribal lands (under the Dawes Act) in 1906, based on the intermarriage of a Cherokee and a white person. The bulk of each volume consists of verbatim transcriptions of the 286 cases wherein the Commission decreed a lawful intermarriage. Assertions of Native American ancestry are the stuff of American family lore and legend; thanks to Jeff Bowen we now have proof of Cherokee-White bloodlines going back to the 19th century!)
Title: "From Martin to Despallier" Subtitle: "The Story of a French Colonial Family" Author: Dahlqvist, Rasmus Publ.: Nov. 2013, 438 pp, ill., non-fiction ISBN: 978-1493603251 The full family history of Alamo Hero Charles Despallier has now been unveiled. Until now, young Charles remained but a name in the list of the Immortal 32. "From Martin to Despallier" tells of the fortunes and misfortunes of the Martin family from Normandy. Starting off as clerks and mariners in France, then colonists in Haiti, and military men in Louisiana, the Martins changed their surname. Now known as Despallier, they became rebels and U.S. frontiersmen, while their kin in France made it to the ranks of consuls and even generals. Find out why the Despalliers fought at the Alamo and in Béxar, and why the Spirit of Sacrifice monument may bear a mistake carved in stone: were Charles Despallier and Carlos Espalier the same person? |
