Jerry also had a Stand on the Trace have located. (DJ) RE:Jerry being the Father of Ikenaby MS...well, that will not stand up against the Baptismal Record D.J. found in Mobile dated l795 with Jerry being "around 9 years of age" when baptised...this would make Jerry too young to have children - right? SO THE BOTOM LINE IS WE ARE SOLELY LACKING IN DATA TO ESTABLISH JERRY AS THE FATHER OF JOHN CARNEY, SR. OF MS Subject: American State Papers VOL VIII URL http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llsp&fileName=035/lls p035.db&Page=686 Link to the Choctaw who applied for citizenship a good copy to save Much has been written about the change in hereditary leadership to an electoral process in nearly all the books written on the Choctaw. This, while true, is misleading. Although the position of Chief generally went to the nephew of the Chief through the sister of the former Chief, the council would chose the canditate also based on his merits as a warrior. H.B. Cushman uses this example in reference to Pushmataha. Presumably, the need for this was that their may be more than one nephew who was vying for leadership. Additionally, the first Chiefs most books referred to as "elected" were descendants of the same three bloodlines as the former Chiefs Mushatubbee (David Folsom and Robert Kincaid), Apuckanubee (presumed relationship, Robert Cole, Greenwood Leflore, Thomas Leflore), and Pushmataha (Oklahoma (sometimes called Tappenhoma) Nittakechi, Pierre Juzan). The descendants of these families continued an active role in tribal government until the Dawes Commission act of 1896, many holding the office of Chief. WHY Jeremiah keeps > coming back to Marion Co. >> > June > There was a large settlement of Choctaw on Pearl River , > between Greens creek & White Sands creek in Lawrence co,Ms. > This is on the north border of Marion co,Ms > This is just across Pearl River from where John Carney had deeds. > Perhaps Jeremiah was there associating with relatives & friends? > > Ted
