While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
In our search for ancestors, sometimes we forget that many Indian Tribes were
in different locations than we expect. Much of what we know comes from
History Books sometimes written by people a hundred years later. We need
to learn the family group many of the tribes originated from, by doing so we may
also learn tribes were not always in the location we have grown to expect. For
other locations by tribe visit Indian Tribes
by Location
The purpose of the location mailing lists
is to provide the reader with additional
information and suggestions on new areas to
look for their ancestors. We have
invited many knowledgeable people to join
these lists and with their help and others,
we may be able to piece together locations
of additional family members.
As with all mailing lists there a few
simple rules.
Suggestions for
Message
Do not use all capitol letters, this is
very hard to read: example THIS IS WHAT NOT TO DO!
Put surnames only in capitol letters:
example SMITH, John
Include dates if known, example: 18
January 1803, not 18/01/03
Include City, County and State if known,
example: Sioux City, Woodbury, Iowa
Rules of the List
No Flames -
This will get you removed from the list, quick as a wink.
Courtesy -
Many of the people writing to this list have very
recently discovered they may have a Native American connection, don't put
them down because you think they asked a stupid question. The only
stupid question is the one not asked.
Off Topic Discussion
- Posts having noting to do with searching for
Native American Ancestors, will be considered off topic. Weather in
your location is a good example. These are not DNA lists, many
lists have been set up just for that purpose.
