Hello I am Hummingbird from Fl.

hummingbird45 · 10-03-2008, 07:13 PM

I sure would like to talk with other native americans. My dad is a Cherokee Chief. He is Chief Grey Eagle. He has lived with me for almost a year. We are planning on starting a language class plus we would love to go to local Pow Wow. My father is a Vietnam veteran, and he is somewhat disabled. He dosen't have many friends. I have some since i am tied in with a wonderful church. However i need e-mail pen pals from Ga. Planning on going to Ga. in 2 yrs. Any Native Americans send me a thread i guess.

Wow
Where to start....
So this Grey Eagle is Chief from birth or just uses the name Chief?
If a Chief what Cherokee Nation, Tribe or Band is he Chief of??

These are questions that come to mind right away
There will be more that is for sure

^^^What he said.

My head is racing right now.

Who is your father's family?
Where did they originally come from?

hummingbird45 · 10-04-2008, 07:21 PM

Originally my father was born here on a Cherokee Reservation that was near what they call now Orlando. Then they lived some in Griffin Ga., then they moved to N.C., then they settled in Valdosta. Most of Dad's family crossed over there.

There are only two federally recognized Cherokee "Reservations" and one is actually considered a "Boundary". One is in OK and the other one is in NC. There are 3 Federally recognized Tribes/Bands of Cherokee in the US and Florida isn't one of them. As far as I know from any of the records the Cherokee nation lands never were in Florida. I'm thinking that either you or your father are confused or getting the wrong Tribe/Nation. And I have never heard of a Cherokee Reservation in FL.

What are your father's family names?

It is actually Chief Grey Eagle on his birth record according to hummingbird. So, by deduction, Chief

is the first name, Grey

is the middle name and Eagle

must be the family name. And his daughter must be Hummingbird

Blue

Eagle

.
