CHEROKEE JACK OR JOCK (CATHERINE BRIANT) Born: CA 1767 in South Carolina, Tenn., Georgia Area Parents: unknown - Cherokee Indians Married: Indian wife of Stephen Mayfield. Children Married to Born Died James Nancy Gore(Ogletree) CA 1785 after 1837 Elisha Nelly (?) 10-10-1792 before 1830? Rachel Pleasant Ogletree 1796 before 1860 Stephen, Jr. 1)Mary Ann (Gipson ?) 1797 1864 2)Mrs. Nancy Griffin Walker Catherine Nicholas Gunnels 1798 Francis (Frankey) Armsted Walker 1799 Died: unknown - probably about 1800 Buried: place unknown - probably in the area where the Cherokees lived where South Carolina, Tenn. & Georgia come together. One descendent of Rachels shows her name as Rebeca Jack. Stephen, Jr. shows on the census records that he was born in Tenn. The girls show various places, mostly Virginia, probably because their father was born in Virginia. Stephen Mayfield apparently was married to Bridgett Gilmore but maintained an Indian wife at the same time. This was not an uncommon practice in those days. In this area where South Carolina, Tenn. & GA come together is where the Cherokee Indians lived about this time and is shown on the 1785 S.C. maps as "Indian Territory' Stephen was a Loyalist and had gone to Florida after the Rev. War in fear of his life, his family is believed to have- stayed in S. C. After about two years there, he came back and lived among the Cherokee Indians. The Indians would not trade with a white man unless he made an alliance with them and one way to make an alliance was to take an Indian wife. Some took Indian wives in order to be able to trade, furs, etc. for provisions. It was probably a day or two journey from where his family lived in Chester County. It must be remembered that the Indian woman was doing nothing wrong according, to her culture. To her, a marriage was a man and woman sharing each other's life and her arrangement did not have the stigma of the white man's culture. Stephen Mayfield was hauled into court on May 10, 1790, in Pendleton County, S.C. He and three other men posted bond of one hundred pounds to ensure that the infant bastard child by Catherine Briant would not be burdensome or charitable to the county. Catherine Briant may be the Indian wife of Stephen and this is her English name. Most Indians at that time took English names, especially those who spun linen cloth which the traders picked up on their routes. The bond is for infant child which could be up to 21; the word infant in common law meant anyone under 21. The child in this Pendleton County document is not named, but is believed to be James, who was probably from 3 to 5 years old. The other children by the Indian wife are believed to be Elisha, born Oct 10, 1792, and Rachel, born in 1796, Catherine b. 1798, and Frances b. 1799 may also be her children. Since he had posted bond once that is probably the reason he was not called into court again. The child is not named in the 1790 document and the bond could probably be provoked on each or all of the children. There is a question as to which of Stephen's children were the children of the Indian wife. Since the descendants of James have always insisted they were part Indian, it is believed James was the oldest and probably the one mentioned in the Pendleton County document. Elishas date of birth is shown in Luke's Bible which indicated he is a half-brother. Rachels descendants filed a claim for Indian Lands, claim #40490 of Elvie A. Christian, a granddaughter, in which she indicated that Rachael was a daughter of Stephen and his Indian wife, whose Indian name was jock (Jack). If Catherine is one of Stephen's children she is believed to have taken the name of her mother. A long time researcher in Overton County, Helen Qualls, said the information handed down in Overton County was that all the children that lived in the area were by the Indian wife except one. Mary (Marian) was born to Bridgett after they moved to Overton County and the older children never lived in the area. Stephen did not mention any of his half-breed children in his will. Stephen left this area of S.C. possibly before 1797 for Stephen, Jr. shows on 1850 and 1860 census that he was born in Tenn. He may have lived in the area of Jefferson/Washington County, Tenn. until late 1799, he would have been 100 to 110 miles (2 to 3 days journey-on a straight line) from where his Indian wife lived and could have still visited her. Even after he moved to Overton County, Tenn. he would have been about 175 miles away. In the claim by Rachels granddaughter, she states "Stephen stole Rachel away from her mother." The person making this statement did not understand the Cherokee culture for the Cherokee woman was raised to believe that she had no rights to the children, and that the children belonged to the father, even though it was her responsibility to train the children. If a Cherokee father died, it was the responsibility of the mothers brothers to take care of them. Even in cases where Cherokee men left their woman, he took the children. If she was not dead, Catherine or jock may have believed that Stephen could do more for her children since he was a white man. It is not known when Stephen took the children, whether he took them one at a time or took them all at once. He may not have taken them until he was settled in Tenn. with Bridget. Catherine probably lived on the property shown in Stephen's name in Anderson County (previously in Pendleton Co.). One speculates what Bridgett's reaction was to all this, but in those days a woman hardly ever left a man. One can only speculate as to when she knew of the Indian woman or when she first found out about her. She would definitely have known when he brought these half-breeds home to raise. There were a number of other well-known families where the man had the same kind of arrangements. Cherokee Indian women wove some of the most beautiful cloth known in that time; it was called 'homespun.' The cloth was exported to England and was highly in demand. It was still being shipped during the Civil War and was the reason for the British to run the Southern blockade. In most cases, the cloth was woven by the woman where she lived and was purchased and picked up by the buyer. The Cherokee Indians were very beautiful people, not like the Southwest Indians which we are prone to think of when we hear the word "Indian." This information is compiled by J. Hoyle Mayfield and includes a lot of speculation and conclusions. Conversations with Afton Reintjes, a professional genealogist, and one who has lectured on Indian Genealogy as well as having been involved with extensive Indian research, has influenced many of these decisions. Further research is needed to try to prove if Catherine Briant was the Indian wife and other aspects of this write-up. He second common-law married JACK CATHERINE Briant*, i POS, AN INDIAN, MARR. Born in 1767 in S.C. FULL-BLOOD CHEROKEE. CATHERINE TOOK STEPHEN TO COURT 10 MAY 1790, AND HE WAS ORDERED TO PAY 5 POUNDS STERLING FINE, AND 10 POUNDS STERLING PROCLAMATION MONEY. AND SUFFICIENTLY AND CAREFULLY PROVIDE FOR HIS INFANT BASTERD CHILD. TILL THE CHILD ATTAIN 10 YEARS. HE LATTER HAD 5 MORE CHILDREN BY HER. This last bit of information is from e-mail by Dale Davidson. Spouse: Stephen MAYFIELD. Stephen
MAYFIELD and Rebeca (Catherine Briant) ? JACK were married in 1784 in VA.
