SANDERS, JANEWAY
Marvin Janeway Mon, Mar 17, 1997<
Searching for any information on Nancy SANDERS, born to an Indian family sometime around 1790 to 1805. This is only a guess as to what county she was born in, Choctaw or Chickasaw. Our family history says she was 1/4 Cherokee but could have been Choctaw or Chickasaw. She moved to Tennessee sometime before 1824 where she married my GGGgrandfather John JANEWAY in Jefferson County, TN.
