Does anyone know if there is a Cherokee connection with the George Ballews of South Carolina? My gggrandfather, George Ballew (Jr.?) was born in Greenville, SC in 1815. My grandfather, James Robert Ballew/Ballou was born there in 1858. He always said he was part Indian, but I don't know if it was his father's or mother's side. Elladean Ballou Brigham
