I recently began my ancestor research. We have some 'Cherokee' in our history. I have a photo of my grandfather (my Dad's side of the family) and you can tell he is of Indian decent. But I haven't had any luck so far. His name was William Ray Sizemore, he married a Martha Watkins. They were from North Carolina area, my dad's name was Wanna Ray Sizemore. I am at a dead end right now, hope to find out more. My brother just emailed me this site, had no idea this existed, hopefully it will be a great resource for me. thanks.
