(Song is Cherokeenation )

The Bleeding Rose & The Trail oF Tears so many Indians suffer from this time in life many died a awful death men ,women and Children.We are Cherokee and very proud to be cherokee.


This is a story about our granny. We loved her very much. She is no longer with us but she will always be in our hearts. I can't wait for you to see this sweet Lady. She loved to go visit friends and go fishing and most of all being with her family she also like her rock-in-chair and hardwood floors. We lost this great lady by cancer in 1989 and she put up one heck of a fight till the very end. I think it was the indian in her fighting strong and hard till her time. I hope you like her page and visit us again and tell every one, she would be so proud to know you came by. Granny was born in 1891 and died in 1989 which to us she would be 98 but the state traced her back when she died and may have been 104 year's old
