• Notes

  NOTES FROM STEPHEN GREGORY "STEVE" LUKE (1947-2002): In 1813 Gibbs as he was known entered Capt James Black's company, McCrory's Regiment, to fight the Red Sticks. When the war ended in 1815 he married Elizabeth Jane Black. He settled in Lawrence County Tenn. later moving to Union County Ga. In 1837 he joined the Ga Militia to help keep order amost the Pin Indians ( those Cherokee who refused to be removed), and rounded up Cherokees for the Trail of Tears. In 1840, perhaps afraid his 1/2 Cherokee wife would be removed, he moved to Ill.
