ID: I24115 Name: Lucinda "Pink" BREWER Sex: F Birth: 26 JAN 1852 in Pike County, Arkansas to Texas (See Photo/Note) Death: 10 AUG 1932 in Age: 80 - Weleetka, Okfuskee Co., Oklahoma
As for the Native American aspect of the Lovin family, we have no evidence that Benjamin Franklin Lovin B. F. or his family were Native American. It is possible that Isabella Wigley was but we have found no evidence in Mississippi records. Our research has been on Lucinda Pink Brewer, B. F.'s 2nd wife, who we are 99% certain was Indian. We have no actual evidence, only circumstantial evidence (her facial features, the fact that her father migrated to Pike County, Arkansas from Tennessee at the same time many Cherokee Indians were doing so, and the fact that her children referred to the family as 'Black Dutch' which is a 19th century euphemism for Native Americans and persons of black ancestry.) Other than these circumstantial clues, we do not yet found hard evidence.
I am working hard (when I have time from my job) to find proof that the Brewers were Cherokee. Jerry and I plan to travel to Arkansas and Texas this year in search of additional information. -- Linda Dudley, cited by Peggy Conley, http://awtc.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:2899172&id=I24115
