Our Great Grandmother married three times. Two of
her children Carrie and Cecil Earl were called "half" siblings by
the other children, but they were all born while Anna was with
Fenn....go figure.
Had six children with William Franklin Fenn during her seven
years of marriage. She left him in Barbour County Alabama with the
children, taking only the baby and moved to join her family of Stone
in Macon City, Bibb, Georgia. There she remarried and gave the baby
the name of Carter. Little baby Carter told his family that his
grandfather was a full blood Cherokee Chief. Of course young Carter
was a tall handsome dark man like his siblings, but he did drink too
much, so the chief part may or may not have been fantasy. The Fenn
boys were tall, over 6' and very dark.
The Carters, Stones,
Fenns were all in 1700s Georgia in Creek Indian Lands. Elijah Fenn
was the son of Travis and "Mary" and the grandson of Zachariah Fann
- Elijah married Martha Rich, daughter of Stephen and "Abiah" Rich.
Elijah's son John married Emeline Harrell and Elijah's daughter
Letitia married Thomas Rich.
Emeline named a son William
Franklin Fenn in 1855. His wife Anna was called Annie. Annie's
parents were Mary Ann Hendrick and Augustus Marvin Stone. Parents of
Augustus were Sarah Davies and Benjamin Wilburn Stone. Ben was the
son of Mary Polly Wells and Michael Stone who lived in Captain John
Stones District of Putnam County Georgia. Parents of Mary Ann were
Mary Ann Winters and C C Hendrick. Winters' parents were Amelia Lyle
and Albert Winters, who married in 1816 Jackson County Georgia which
was then Cherokee Nation East. During this era it was quite common
to marry a native american and give them a Christian name.
Anna Lou's baby was named Cecil Earl and he is only found in
Texas census records for 1920 and 1930 during his military service
first at San Antonio and then at Fort Bliss in El Paso. On the 1900
census Anna's son Robert is not listed so she may have been pregnant
at the time and she may have also raised him but I have been unable
to locate her on a census after she married or lived with Mr. Carter
- she was very young and may have had more children with Carter.
There are some possibilites with the census records but the woman is
listed as black and widowed - then there is one Arnie Carter which
could be Annie in Macon GA and she is alone, a laundress. Even so,
in 1910 and 1920 there is no Robert listed as her son and the family
knew him personally and he did exist and I found his tombstone by
his brother Frank Jr. Then her son Arthur is not found after 1910
even though family says he married, had children, and died in his
20s.

Our great grandfather Charlie McClain's father came out
of Georgia during the Civil War leaving behind a wife and children,
who eventually filed divorce. The McClains originally were
from Virginia, migrating into South Carolina, with the marriage of a
Charles McClain to Elizabeth Moon around 1760 and she gave him
several sons who migrated into Georgia long before the Trail of
Tears.
Mars Hill Cemetery in Cobb County GA
connects to
Josiah McClain of South Carolina who's father was Charles McClain
who might have been in the American Revolution; Charles had married
Elizabeth MOON in Virginia around 1780 and then migrated into the
Carolinas where their children were born.
Josiah was born in
1788 SC and found on census in Georgia. The name on his headstone is
JOSAH
Josiah had James in 1810, John Milton, William Smith,
etc. Josiah also had Charles Pinkney McLain in 1818

They all had many children.

Hans Brooks of Holland and his son John Brooks born 1837 in
Pennsylvania. John Baptist Bond, Caroline Bond and Thomas Smith,
grandson of John Smith, Annie Clark Ballard, granddaughter of Larkin
Francis Ballard, Rowena Densy Baxter, Peter Bozeman of the American
Revolution, his son William Henry to Peter Edward, Elisha Anderson
to Seaborn Montgomery Anderson, Lavinia Brack, Hester Doty, William
Sellers, Charles McClain and Josiah, Gideon Moon, Elijah Lee, Andrew
Cooper, Frank Cochran, Isaac Coonfield, Captain George Little of

Little, Reason Roby, John Fann of England, Zachariah Fenn, Anna Lou
Stone, Frank Fenn, Augustus Marvin Stone, Mary Angeline Partridge
and George Thornton, Milton Elijah Thornton, Bessie Mae Hood and
Ella Olivia Baxley, and many more.
Most believe the Boseman or Bozeman families came from Holland
and this we may never know. Edword Bozeman was found in the 1790
census of Baltimore, Maryland; John in Talbot, MD; Lawrence Bouseman
in Baltimore. Some served in the American Revolution and received a
pension along with grants of land, for instance, the South Carolina
Archives lists some as Gabriel, John, Paul, Jesse, Ralph, James,
Mordecai and probably more with different spellings of our last
name. Of course it would be nice to learn more about Mordecai even
his middle name and if he was the son of Samuel Edward Bozeman and
Mary White, after all, her brother was named Mordecai and the name
Edward has continued over many centuries.
So many names were
Biblical yet then we find another set of Bozemans named Ralph, Fred,
George, and Lewis. Names were so very special, most often, after
another dearly loved family member.
These families were
farmers and many had well educated, successful careers, mostly
throughout the South, as they explored each new territory as it
became available.
Reverend Bozeman did a marvelous job
writing his "Sketches of the Bozeman Family" in 1885 and a couple of
pages were scanned to share indicating the whereabouts of Mordecai.
He does not say anything about Mordecai being a fatality of the
Revolution so we can only assume that he died later from natural
causes, and hopefully that information will come to light soon.
The 1810 census of Darlington SC shows only four Bosemans,
John, James, Peter and Chapman. 1800 shows a Thomas living in
Somerset NC. The name Thomas is carried on through the next century.
* From 1798 to 1819, a steady influx of Europeans into
Alabama settled on land formerly occupied by several Native American
tribes. Alabama became a part of the Mississippi Territory in 1798
after Indian cessions in north Alabama. Migration increased after
the end of the Creek War in 1814. In 1817, the Alabama Territory was
created, and Alabama became the 22nd in December 1819. PETER BOZEMAN
was in Alabama on the 1830 census.

Fact, fiction or folklore, by the time the American
Revolution was over, there were dozens of Bozeman families
throughout the South.
They resided among several different

In January 2008 the DAR has finally listed Peter Bozeman.
Mordecai Bozeman born 1735 NC, while there were only a few
colonies on the coast, while it was still Indian Nation and his son
Peter born 1758 served in the American Revolution. Documents show
that both were paid 4 pounds for their service. Nothing more is
found on Mordecai but his son Peter moved his family to Montgomery
Alabama about 1826 - 1827. His son William Henry is my connection.
However, we must note that Peter's second son was named Jesse in
1793. There was another Jesse in the Revolutionary War who lived by
Peter on the 1800 Darlington Census so there is a strong possibility
they were brothers. Or that Mordecai went by another name, middle
name, and could have been there. Peter's first son was named Meade
so that might have some connection to his mother or his mother in
law - perhaps their maiden names.... William and Martha Hill (
daughter of John Hill of South Carolina) had Peter Edward Bozeman
who married Nancy Jane Anderson ( daughter of Lavinia Jane Sellers,
who's mother was Lavinia Brack) and had John Thomas - John married
Alice Lorena Stephens and had Lorena Emma Bozeman - Lorena married
Charles Allen McClain, the only son of Elizabeth Broadway and Josiah
Marion McClain. Their daughter Alice Emma McClain married a dark
handsome Cherokee named Cecil Earl Fenn Carter about 1931 and had
Anne Alice Carter in 1934. Cecil's parents were Anna Stone and Wm
Franklin Fenn. Anne was orphaned at the age of 5 and lived with her
McClain Grandparents. Anne Carter married Frankie Lavern Cochran in
1951.
Frank was the son of Luella Ellen Coonfield and Frank
Delbert Cochran of Chetopa Kansas and Frank had one eighth Cherokee
blood. Luella's parents were mixed Cherokee, Lattie Cedonia Little
of Kentucky and Benjamin Wallace Coonfield of Arkansas. Frank
Delbert's parents were Clora Jane Miller of Illinois and Jacob
Benjamin Cochran of Ohio. Clora's parents were Mary Clara Parker of
New York and James Miller of Rockingham Virginia. Parents of Mary
Clara were Rosannah Lemmon and Archelaus Parker, a son of Sarah
Tefft and Archelaus Richardson Parker of Massachusetts and New York
Indian Country 1600s.
Anne Carter Cochran's daughter Kathy
married Charles Wayne Brooks of Montgomery Alabama. His parents were
Mary Ella Thornton and James Edgar Brooks. Mary Ella's parents were
Bessie Mae Hood and Milton Elijah Thornton. Parents of James were
Susie Mae Cooper and James E Brooks Sr. Parents of Susie were Sarah
Elizabeth Carter and Levi Benjamin Cooper. Parents of Milton were
George Thornton and a native american named Mary Angeline Partridge
out of Georgia. Parents of James Sr were Annie Clark Ballard and
John Edwin Brooks from Maury County TN. John's parents were Roxanna
Permilia Smith of TN and John Brookes of PA and his family came from
Holland. The Ballards were from North Carolina 1700s.
Thus
all of the Brooks children descend from many surnames including the
Bozemans and Carters.

Bozeman in SC Militia, father of

have been the son of Mary White and Samuel Bozeman of Bladen
County North Carolina and born 1735, while it was still Cherokee
Indian Territory. The researchers of his son John claim that John
was half Cherokee so the other sons would also be half blood. This
makes sense since nothing is known about his wife and his marriage
is not recorded anywhere thus far - some speculate that his wife
was called Elizabeth

The son of
Mordecai born around 1755-1758 had sons named Jesse M, Peter E,
William Henry and a daughter Lucy Campbell. They moved to
Montgomery Alabama around 1827 and Peter died around 1829. Peter
had been paid for his service in the SC Continental Line of the
American Revolution but thought he had earned something more when
he moved, perhaps the Land Grant, but was possibly rejected
because of a dead line setup by the government, but he did write
about having a certificate, one that we have not yet discovered.
