Osiyo! What a great web site! I really enjoyed all the links etc., you have here. My great great grandmother, born in 1852 in Pulaski, TN was named Tymoxsena Dyer. She always said that she was Cherokee Indian. I have wondered what her name might mean and so far haven't been able to find out via internet search engines. I have never seen the name anywhere else in all my research. I have never been able to prove our lineage regarding the tribe, but she had many traditions of the Cherokee, and knew all about herbs and medicinal uses of herbs. My mother knew her well and has told me much about her so I feel I know her too. You can see her Cherokee features in her pictures too. Her grandmother was a Birdwell who married a McCormack/McCormick and her mother married a Joel Dyer, we aren't sure which line carried the Indian blood. The census's we've found them listed under don't note the race so we didn't get a clue there. Also, many Cherokees had light skin and blue eyes so you get it honest! ha, I have blue eyes too, but ruddy skin and high cheekbones and much pride! Osiyo! Annette Keen
