 One thing I`m sure that you already know, but wanted to mention just in case you didn`t, my dad has always told me about how quick Uncle Jack was.  He is always telling of him going to the old circus or county fair where there was a boxing champion there that took on all comers and Uncle Jack stepping up to the challenge.  Dad said that Uncle Jack was so quick that the champion never touched him!

Another thing I noticed about Uncle Jack was that he looked an awful lot like my grandpa, Isam Wright.  To my knowledge they were the only full-blooded brothers.  Mom said something about them being of Indian blood?   Do you know of anything about this?

 the towns of the Cherokee were usually located near the mouth of small creeks  where clear water could be obtained. 
  
 The towns were protected from enemies by stockade like structures. The towns  lay on one side of the river. The stockades were built of posts spaced about  six or eight inches apart with the spaces filled in with saplings and cane.  This kind of stockade represents the type used after the Indians obtained guns  from the white man, which made it necessary to place the posts as close as  possible to ward off bullets.

Council houses were always built on a level place near a stream so the people  could take their ceremonial cold plunges during or after ceremonies. The  council house would hold about 500 people and was the most important building  in the town. Ordinary persons and women could not attend the council, but each  clan was represented at the council. The seven clans of the Cherokees were:

1. aniwadi (Paint Clan)
 2. anigategewi (Raccoon or Blind Savannah, Shawnee or Wild Potato Clan) 3. ani-sahoni (Blue, Panther or Wild Cat Clan)
 4. ani-gilohi (Long Hair or hair hanging down, or Wind Clan) 5. anitsiskwa (Bird Clan)
 6. aniwahiya (Wolf Clan)
 7. ani-awi (Deer Clan).

Cherokees in ancient times wore feathers of different colors to indicate their  clan membership.
