My cousins have done the family research and found no connection. I was always told by my father that we were part Cherokee. The time and tribe were right for the Issac Chrisman time. If he were killed there was no one to protect the women. I agree that info would not be in the family history as it would have been a disgraceMelodee Shelton Bonneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10708923512505022455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11857148.post-20772279754466853422013-03-01T03:48:06.285-05:002013-03-01T03:48:06.285-05:00I also am a descendant of Jost Hite through Issac ...I also am a descendant of Jost Hite through Issac Chrisman and Magdalena Hite.

My great grandfather married a Carrie Christman, which is our father's mother's mother, which traces back to Jacob Cristman (Born in 1711) from Germany. Does that make Tim a Drake long lost cousin?<br />Mr. Jeff Drakeduckweed1971https://www.blogger.com/profile/03525809280566336957noreply@blogger.com
