Disputed Origins

This profile was apparently created based on information filed in an Eastern Cherokee application filed by Riley Watson. ^[1] Riley made the following statements: "My father's name was John Freeman. My mother's name was Ibbie Freeman, maiden name Ibbie Watson. Her mother Bettsey Watson Marden... Her mother Polly Sanooke a daughter of the chief Sanooke. His brother Corntassell Sanooke."

No one by any of these names is found on any Cherokee rolls. The application of Riley Freeman was rejected.
