This profile represents the wife of William Black (1720-1799), a man born in Scotland and who died in Pennsylvania.
A previous version of this profile claimed, without source, that she was born in Cherokee, Alabama in 1720 and died in Tennessee in 1783, places that are inconsistent with a wife of a man who lived and died in Pennsylvania.
I am also told that "There are no records of any Cherokee women this early" and been ordered to remove the record. I have to say that logic dictates that "there are no records" does not indicate that she never existed, so I will leave this profile up, in all its uncertainty in the hopes that some future person may discover the facts. --Black-6579
This data is from a personal family history that was compiled by Purrilla Estella Simmons. Purilla (or "Sister", as we called her) was not a professional genealogist, and the history was compiled long before computers, or internet, was available. I am told that she worked on it all her life and visited cemeteries all over the southeast USA. -- Black-6579
