Happy Independence Day


My ancestors arrived here from Ireland in the early 1800's(LEGALLY). One made his way to a wilderness known as Indiana Territory, married a Cherokee girl, the rest is history.

3 My ancestors were, from what I was told, horse thieves who had to change their names to avoid prosecution.. the original family name is lost in the sands of time.
 
Nice vid.

5 Where are my manners!
Happy 4th of July to the friends of the JAWA's as well as the JAWA's themselves. (This ought to have been my comment #1. Apologies.)

6 No you old smelly old drunken loyalist bigot. She was actually the only one full blodded indian we know of. I get to be immune to poison ivy for it dickface er I mean rooster. The rest are all english genman and Irish. A little Indian here and there didn't hurt the mix it made it better. We still have her old recipe book that's been handed down with all kinds of Eurpean and Indian cures. Yes the medicine is right in the same book with the cooking stuff. Grandpa's dad used it to cure whooping cough in grandpa and his kids. The neighbors called him a damn Indian witch-doctor when he offered them some, but they were back in just a few days when their kids started getting bad and it worked. If you've never seen whooping cough, it's terrible.
