    Fred,

    Have you ever heard the rumor that Bradley Gambill bought his wife, Susanna
    Fisher Nash off the auction block ? She is said to have been Portugese and
    Cherokee and sold as a slave. This comes from the family of her grandson
    John. At one time there was a big discussion on this in the families.Some say
    a romantic tale, and others claim the truth. A very interesting thought
    indeed !

    Fred,
    Just wondering how you are coming along with your family.

    Also looking to comfurm Susannah Fisher Nash was an Indian Slave. Many
    Indians were slaves either for whites or other Indians,
