 Text: Amherst County Court Clerks Office May 7, 1860-311-Registered by ord er of April Court 1860 Obediah Nuckles a free man of colour-bright complex ion-5 feet 10 3/4 inches high-small scar between eye brows-no other scar a pparent on head face or hands-born in Amherst and descended from ancesto rs free before the 1st day of May 1806.
 
 As I stated in the answer that was sent about Obadiah Nuckles he was on t he Monacan Indian Rolls which meant he was Monacan Indian thats all I kn ow concerning him. The tribal Rolls is the original Indian roll that hol ds the names of the original Monacan Indians who were in the Bear Mounta in area and settled at the old Johns Settlement on Bear Mountain. If you c an prove blood kin to someone on the rolls its a possibiliy that you cou ld become a member of the Monacan Nation.

 your inquiry about obadiah nuckols, there is a book called strangers in th eir midst by sherrie s. mcleroy and william r mcleroy, published by herita ge books, it lists the free blacks of amherst county, which the indians we re called blacks, back then, look on pg. 150, there it lists obadiah, al so my friend, jerry white eagle taylor, knows alot about the monocan histo ry which is where obadiah is listed, his phone # is 804-299-5795 and his e -mail is whiteag@webtv.net, also his fax is 208-694-2770. the monocan muse um in amherst county va. is open to the public tues.- sat, they have al ot of info. and their ph # is 804-946-5391

 It was in my original opinion that these Monacan were actually Freedmen, and Melungeon and that this was a back door attempt to gain status as a tribe. My opinion has changed a little since a few months ago. I s till believe that many were Freedmen. But I now believe that they were the UNREGISTERED FREEDMEN who never applied to the Goverment or the Bure au of Indian Affairs for benifits. I also believe that there are former slave owning family's who are also involved with Virginia getting state reconition for these folks. I also believe that there are "factions" of the Melungeon's at work with all of this as well. My work with checking the Monacan is by no means gonna be over any time soon. But for the time being, I only ask that you look at these names and if "you know" this info is incorrect, then do your part in making it correct. Think about this!! What would your ancesters say, if they were alive today and knew that their names were being used by folks living today wanting tribal reconition, with their CHEROKEE birthright?

 I cannot explain why Obadiah Sr and Belinda Gue would be listed. Belinda 's father was from France and her mother was Margarett Whitten. And there is no evidence that Mary Nuckles was Indian or John Bais. It does not make any sense that they are listed. A most interesting observation. Does anyone have any ideas?

Noted events in his life were:

• He appeared on the census in 1820 in Amherst Co, VA. (Knuckles) 300100-00100

Obediah married Belinda Gue 7 Sep 1815 in Amherst Co, VA2, daughter of John Gue and Rosemary "Peggy" Whitten. Belinda was born in 1795 and died after 1860.

Marriage Notes:

General Notes and Information:
From:JULIE GUE SMITH (JCAT13@AOL.COM)Looking for James H Gue believed to h ave been born to Linsey & Nancy(Nicely) Gue in 1838 or 1844. It is possib le that there were 2 James from this area. Linsey was married in Rockbrid ge Co. in 1832. His mother is believed to have been Balinda Gue who lat er married Obediah Nuckles in Rockbridge 9-7-1815. I cannot locate Balinda 's father and cannot valiate any of this info. There is some very poor research on this family who later moved to WV. The researchers aim I believe was to gain acess to DAR records. Please help if you can. I am only
interested in searching my family and recording an accurate account of their history.

Although probably the son of Obediah by overwhelming evidence, he is probably not the son of Belinda Gue. Obediah may have been married before Belinda since he is certainly old enough. Or may have been born out of wedlock to Obediah and Belinda.

I don't have anything that 100% positively identifies Obediah as Samuel 's father - I have sent e-mails over the years to the people who have post ed that info, but no one has been able to provide me with any proof of i t. I do believe, however, that Samuel is Obediah's son because Obediah gi ves his permission for Samuel to marry Hannah Rowsey - and usually a pare nt would give permission.

Indian Island by Peter W. Houck and Mintcy D. Maxham...Calvin C. Knuckes a nd his wife's obits...copy of the original Monacan membership rolls...
bcatwalker@home.com (Becky)

A person (Eva Moody who is descended from Calvin's sister Arena Nuckles w ho married Winston Branham) wrote to my aunt about the race thing and t he census. She said that census takers were not allowed to write down Indi an, so put either M mulatto or B black. Many times the label had to do wi th the name of the person and not their race.

She said that many Cherokee passed through that area of Amherst Coun ty on their way to Washington to do business. Many Monacans thought they w ere Cherokee. Dr. Houck did research and found that the people were descen ded from a Sioux tribe. He got enough proof that the state of Virginia rec ognized the Monacans as the 8th Indian tribe about 15 years ago.

This is apparently the George W Nuckhols listed as being in Co F.27th Va I nfantry in the civil war. A George W Nuckols is listed on the Rockbrid ge Co list of pensioners qualifying under the Pension Act of 1900 for 19 01 (line 163)and again (line 129)

Assuming the Geo W that married Ann is the same Geo W in the civil wa r. He enlisted Apr 23, 1861 as a Pvt in Co. B, 49 Reg’t Va Infantry at Am herst Court House for a period of 12 months. He has 16 card #s and 2 medi cal cards. (there is an oddity in that the civil war papers indicate 27 th infantry which is where I found his information, however, Co B 27th app arently merged with Co. B 49th Infantry and I guess by Nov/Dec 1863, it w as Co I 49th Infantry). He was a POW at Gettysburg

1910 Rockbridge Co, Bueana Vista, VA pg 173 is Geo W Nuckolds married 2tim es, wife Bessie, 23 married 7 years 3 childrne 3 living. Son William F a ge 6, Charles age 4 and Lewis age 2. His occupation was Skimmer in the si lk mill. As he is living next to his son, Henry, I believe this is him

The interesting thing I found about Allen Nuckols' marriage records is th at on his marriage to Julia Rodgers both Allen and Julia were listed as "c olored". On his marriage record to Victoria Grant they were both list ed as "white". Julia and Victoria were first cousins. The "colored" deno tes Indian blood. My daughter joined the Monacan Indian Nation through Al len Nuckols. (Source- Robin Rosuar@aol.com)

Notes for MALLIE BRANHAM:

1. Article from The Evening Sun 1955, Baltimore MD. States that Edmond sis ter Mallie Branham was 116. This would give her a dob between 1838-1839. T his would make to old to be Sylvanis's wife.

2. Diane John Shields writes: A copy of Edmund Branham and Elena marria ge record of September 21, 1896 states that he is 28 years old and

that his parents are Richard and Christina Branham. Also the marriage reco rd of Mallie or Mollie and Sevanius Branum of October 8, 1908 state that s he

is 30 years old and her parents are Richard and Christina. I think maybe t he article is wrong or someone doesn't have the dates right.
