Comments: You have my family history about the attack on the Livingston Family by Indians on the Holston in Indian Atrocities...I have a family history book which ties our families to Pocahantas and to the Cherokee...as well as the history of Martha Jefferson's family, the Bollings of Cobbs...family notes on miltary campaigns in Virginia and Tenn. from Revolutionary War, through the Civil War....and links to treaties with the Cherokee..My Reese surname is also listed in the lineage of Nancy Ward, Beloved Woman of the Cherokee, as Susannah Reese was the mother of Elias Boudinot and Gen. Stand Watie(Oouatee), Chief of the Cherokee and the last Confederate General to surrender in the Civil War at Battle Creek...so how were the military and government officers in our family Cherokee and against the Cherokee? What was this mix of government/Indian alliances? History does not tell us.
