forced
fixsk to resort to nioPs exxame o a shorter method. I have written a genealogical

list that will help everyone to trace up himself for others. The map will show the

connection in marriage ties in Sunpson County, North Carolina. The marriage list will

show it in Sumpson and other counties. I suppose this effort may be criticized,but

to those who feel disposed to do so, I mmx would say I have done my best and if any-

one else can do better, I shall be glad to see it done". Page one begins with the ge-

nealogical and marriage lists. The Smith family is of Indian and white origin. They

have Indian traits-, MAKE THEM SMART

AND INDUSTRIOUS. The sane may be said of the Burnett. family. Ben B. Burnett is a brick-

makex mason, caster, andfitme finder. The Ammons family are almost extinct, extinct,

but the white blood predominates in most of them. Jim Amons died in France-his wife

Ollie B. Annmns is a school teacher and teaches in the Indian schools. She was educa-

ted at Pembrooe, North Carolina. Timothy Goodmanlived in Sumpson County. The records

in the registry of deeds office of Sumpson COunty show that he was a large owner bexre

the Civil War. The Goodman's are an industrious people-they own real estate in Sumpson

County. Nancy, the grandmother and great-grandmother of those Goodmans, now in this

county was a typical Cherokee Indian,both in looks and face. She was a midwife and

after she had performed the duties ofLher office, she would dance the Indian dance,

after the custom of the Indians of many years ago. Next we come to the Stricklands-they

own real estate in Heiring Township and are industrious and kind. We need not mention

the connection of these people iasit shows,as it is shown in the list of marriages in

this pamphlet. They have always been classed with the rest of the classified Indians

and have been their asso, associates ever since the writer has known them. We now come

to the Jacobs families. Ihey are the descendants of Primus and Abraham Jacobs who lived

on Roan's Swamp in Marsh Branch in Sumpson County, North Carolina. Prior to the Revol-

utionary War in 1764, a grant from King George III was issued to Abraham Jacobs for

200 acres of land on Roan's Swamp-see Register of Deeds records in Sumpson County-Book
