Some trees do not show Jahaza as a child of the John Sizemore/Nancy Cunningham family. I cannot be certain Jahaza is a child of this family.
Additional research is needed.

Name: Jahasy Sizemore
Birth: dd mm 1863
Parents: John Sizemore
Turner Family Tree
The date of death of Jahaza conflicts with other family treees. Some say 1884 but I think it was 1894. Minnie was born in 1884 and Esther in 1992.
Our family says Minnie was age 3 and Esther age 1 when William Row and Jahaza Sizemore died in the cholera plague in Kentucky.
Jahaza was a daughter of Wiley and Elizabeth Sizemore Arnett. She married 5/2/1867 in Magoffin Co., Kentucky Martin Vanburen Howard, son of
Benjamin and Nancy Adams Howard.

Hallo,
my name is Bernhard Sizemore, Sohn of Charles Russell Sizemore, I live in Germany in Berlin and I was born in South - Germany. My father was born
in Kentucky in Wurtland. The last years of his life he lived in Wooster Ohio. Because I was an illegitimated child, I met my father very late, so about the
year I977 in Ohio. It was the best moment in my life. At this time my english language was not so good to heard and spoke with my father by the origin
of the Sizemore ±family. The little bit what I understand was, that he had a Cherokee Indians background. I994 I became from the public authority in
Germany the american citizenship. On account of citation of paternity I became the surname from my father. One of my cousins give me any copies
of documents of Sizemore grandfathers¶ s back to the great Indian Golden Hawk. So I am a directly descendant from Edward Sizemore Old Ned,
Sizemore George All, George Sizemore (Golden Hawk), William Sizemore (Black Hawk), John (sen.) Sizemore, John (jun.) Sizemore, Charles Russell
Sizemore (my father) and then I ±Bernhard Sizemore. I have a son and a grandson, we all live in Germany in Berlin.
In the last years , when my wife and I visiting the USA (I have the American-citizenship), we tried to find out anythings about the origin of the
Descendants of: Page 46 of 46

Sizemore-families. In the library in Cherokee-tow n in North-Carolina w e found on microfilms the ÂÄ Guion Miller Roll ±Applicants Not Admited³of
Sizemore¶ s admited, who registered before I907.
All the originals are in Washington D.C. I can red in all letters in the microfilm¶ s, that they registerd.
Now my question¶ s: How I can work through the internet to become copies from theese documents? I worked a big family-tree with a grafic-
program on my computer (format .ged). Wen you want this, I can mail it to you. But I think, it cannot be enough, I would have more informations and
maybe a privat-contact to other people of Sizemore.
I read one article over George Sizemore ÂÄ Man w ho fathered more than 50 children to be honored³from june 8,I999. I found it on the local-side in
the new spaper ÂÄ Daily Independent³ , Salyersville, Ashland, Kentucky.
I don¶ t know , if you are the right person¶ s to answer me, but I want to get in touch with any people, they have to do with the monument, as Todd
Preston from Magoffin County Historical Society, But Breston, Magoffin County School Superindendent Henry Clay Sizemore and the other
Sizemore¶ s you are writing about all this people in your newspaper-article. I think, Miss Connie Arnett Wireman can tell me more anythings about the
Sizemore-family-tree.
In search of my Indian-ancestor¶ s in the internet I found very interesting informations. First I am interesting about the name Sizemore, where is the
originate and how is the combination to the Cherokee?
Please, can you send me a mail, w here I can buy the book ³ Whoµ s Who in my Sizemore Family³by Verle H.Parry Hawkins County, Tennessee?
You w rote about this book in the internet family-tree by cards of Sizemore George ÂÄ All³
. The book must send to Germany. I hope, it¶
s not to much
trouble for you. Thank you.
B. Sizemore
