Biography
Nannie Drumgoole was born about 1779, the daughter of a Cherokee mother and a white trader named Alexander Drumgoole. She had children with three men. With Doublehead she was the mother of Peggy and Bird Doublehead; with John Foreman, James and Betsy Foreman; and with John Springston, Isaac and Anderson Springston.[1] James Foreman, Isaac, and Anderson Springston were living near one another at the time of the 1835 census.[2] Whether Nannie was living with one of them is unknown, but her family was removed to Indian Territory in 1838 and settled in the Delaware District. Her obituary stated that she had four living children when she died in 1850, all of whom were present at her deathbed.[3]
Research Notes
Grandson John Springston thought that Nannie was married to someone named Wilson, but he may have been confused; her sister Ruth and daughter Peggy both married men named Wilson.
Grandson John also believed that Edley Springston was also her son, but he was actually the husband of her daughter Betsy Foreman.[4]
Nannie's sister Ruth also had children with John Foreman and with a Springston.
