This is about Native American Ancestors and other things. And sort of way off topic. But I was thinking about what you said about the Naitive American people you belong to. Which is always interesting.

I live in Daniel Boone Country here in Kentucky, where was I born in the fork of the Cumberland Road and Daniel Boone Trail in an old wilderness house here, also not far form the Warriors Path Fork; next to the old Shawnee River now called the Cumberland River. My mothers family, the "Wombles" have ties to the Brule and folk such as Crazy Horse (and or Sitting Bull, I forget which one of them, my Uncle knows which) out of the Dakotas who came down the Louisianna Trail and turned up in here around the times of Tecumsee. One of my Brule ancestors was so dark that they were kidnapped and sold as a slave. My fathers family lived up in Warriors Path, or Flat Lick KY and have Shawnee ancestors. White people did not come from out of Warriors Path KY, but they live there now a days. We have Choctaw and Chickasaw as well as Cherokee ancestors also and are related to some Boones and Walkers. Dr. Thomas Walker is the white discoverer of this area which led Daniel Boone into here later. Part of my family is Irish and have ties to folk in the Royalty of England via the Valentine name. Some of the folk who bear the name Wombles are royalty there also. Native Americans who could read English took to the name Wombles since it means "One who lives by or comes from a place where there is a well of spring."

Where I lived at in Charlestown Indiana; which is where my family took me after I was born here, they found a stone there with Daniel Boone's name on it and believe that is the furtherest north he ever came.

According to Wales and their old maps and books, "supposedly" Prince Madoc (Maddox) of Wales sailed up the Ohio River in about 900 A.D. and settled there. Actually there are ancient ruins in Charlestown Indiana of what might have been a sort castle from over 1000 years ago. The name of that site is Devil's Back Bone. And the Shamo Ruins. There were yellow haired (blond) Native American tribes from there according to the old records of the settlers. (Supposedly from seven yellow haired men who came across the ocean in olden times and settled here.)

We have a few reservations here (in KY) which are not on the map and a Native American Council up in London KY. Many of the white folk here have Native American ancestors. My great grandfather was Daw (Black Crow) Jackson, and his father was Mace (War Club) Jackson. Do not let the last name fool you. These folk were Shawnee. My name and looks may suggest all Anglo Saxon.

We have a treaty with the Cherokee in Oklahoma to come here and do their hoop dance and trade with us during the Daniel Boone Festival this coming month of October and we trade cane with them. There are allot of tee pees and old wilderness camps that go up each year here. They take away allot of cane for use in crafts. Last year the cane appeared to be short and so that was a disturbing thing for the Cherokee who come here from a long distance each year. We always have booths and tents and tee pees that go up in and around the time of the Feast of Tabernacles or Succoth. (Barbourville KY)

Technically; we are celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles this way, since old times here. This is where its at and has been a long time now.

Anyways, Native American ancestry is always more interesting than European ancestry. I support the ways of old and support the Native American Church also. Because I support peoples Constitutional birth rights and heritage. However my faith is “Yahwistic Elohisism.” I believe that Yahweh is the Great Elohim or Great Mighty One of Old and that Yahshua is the Son of Yahweh. That means I read the Bible and believe in it fully. I just have a technical name for it and perhaps a new name.

*Way back in the creation, before the days of Adam. A meteor crashed into the earth here and created a crater and helped make a passage way possible known as the Cumberland Gap. When the white settlers found the meteor crater, they noticed it was like a big bowl and so they made a settlement there now known as Middleboro Kentucky since it is in the middle of the crater. In around 1995-96 when I came back to my birth place here after 36 or so years in Charlestown Indiana, a large stone slid out of the mountains here that had ancient text on it. Some think it is similar to ancient Phoenician? It is on display now in Manchester KY. It might be found on the Internet? So that stone (the meteor) was laid in the foundation here in the creation before the first man and woman; and made possible the South Eastern Gateway as it is called in some history books. {The Cumberland Gap}

The settlers found allot of these ancient stones with text on them in the mountains here but time swallowed them up until one came sliding down a mountain and landed in a local highway near here; about a year after I came back to my birth place here from Indiana. Folk here in times a few thousand years ago could read and write. So my foundations are on this rock or rocks. My life goes from the rock that fell in the creation to the one that Daniel Boone carved his name on in Indiana now back to the one that fell out of the mountain. And to the one that is way higher than I. I stand on one leg who's roots are in this land from ancient times and the other leg has root's its in the Old World across the Atlantic.

I consider Charlestown Indiana my hometown though. I married a nice Jewish gal who's father's family converted to Christianity after they came here from Germany in the early part of the 20th Century. We have a beautiful daughter who is a Civil Engineer now at the Federal Building in Louisville. She will be going for her Doctorate in Mathematics.

Truth is stranger than fiction. A good story is a good story. Know your roots and your foundations! I believe God knew us all even as far back as the very foundations of creation. He looked ahead through time then, and saw us all here today.

Old Dan is "Old Man Rattlesnake." I got a real mean streak in me.
