Research ReportsOutline Descendant Tree - 29 Mar 2001, PDF format. (21 pages, 2mb). Most WantedMartha Jane Rafferty: Was she 15/16 Cherokee Indian as family lore states? We have found no evidence thus far. Her parents were born in Tennessee and she was born in Arkansas. Her nephew, Sisroe "Roe" Rafferty, son of Thomas F. Rafferty, did marry Caldonia Jones who appears in the Dawes Final Roll 1819-1914 as Caldonia Rafferty 1/16 Cherokee. Her children as listed as being 1/32 Cherokee. This would seem to indicate that she had Cherokee blood and, as far as she knew, her husband was 100% white. Another possible Indian connection is Albert P. and Rachel M. and their daughter Mary E. Goforth who also appears in the Dawes Final Roll. If you have any information about Indian blood in this family, please send email. Allied Family Lines
