    My great-great-great grandparents were William Bouldin (Bowling) and Joanna Collins of Patrick Co., Virginia. Joanna's father was Edward (aka Ned) & mother was Hannah (from NC). They lived in the Peters Creek area of Patrick Co. VA, between Absolam Collins (Joanna's much older brother?) and Elisha Collins. Think this Edward was in Stokes Co census of 1810. Hannah died in PCVA in 1875. Think that's the only death record I have found. I'd love to find out more about them.

    In the 1850 census, Edward (Ned) and Hannah have William Hahone and John Bridgeman living with them. Maybe they are familiar to someone? They are a few spaces from Norman and Mary Going, mulatto farmers. So far, my folks have been listed as white on the censuses that list race, but nearly everyone in my family appears to live a couple doors down from black or mulatto labeled neighbors. Not sure if that is significant or not.

    According to my aunts, both my grandmother from this line (Mattie Bouldin) and my grandfather (Her husband, Howard Foley) were "part-Indian". I thought they were both Cherokee, but am not sure anymore.

    In addition to this tradition, my grandmother had a painting of one of her American Indian relatives, who she said "lived on a reservation." I had no idea it would become such a puzzle later. Nobody seems to know where that painting went or which reservation. Maybe she meant village?

    I'm from Henry Co., Virginia & live in NC. Most of my family still lives in various New River counties.

    Here are some of the other names whose roots intertwine:
    Branch, Foley, Anderson, Ross, Cannaday, Goard, Harbour, Cronk, Turner, Daniel, Thomas, Nowlin, Joyce...

    I have old photos of my g-grandparents (Foley and Bouldin) and her parents (Bouldin/Collins and Foley).

    Thank you.
    Bee Branch
