Re: Augustus Captain - 1st Osage Battalion

I am tracing family records back to General Broke Arm who I believe was my Grandpa's Grandpa's Grandpa. Family oral history has always described him as Cherokee, and one of my Great Aunts still cries and tells how people in the 40s called her a Cherokee squaw. I'm guessing the tribes were somewhat intermingled as another poster mentioned?

I'd love to hear more about Broke Arm or his daughters Morning Doe and Dawn Flower if anyone knows anything.
