Notes
Family tradition says that Samuel Yancy's grandfather was a full-blooded Cherokee Indian Chief. His first name was Erskine, but it is not known if this was his Indian name or white first name. W.B. Young said he was told as a child that his great grandfather even wore feathers. Several of the grandchildrens' names have an Indian sound to them.
