I seem to be having a similar problem with my Anges.
As legend has it [according to my great uncle Eddie Gray]...
My great great great grandmother was Augusta Ange (b1852 in NC) she was the daughter of Porter Ange (which I can find no evidence of) and an indentured servant named Matilda (b1829 prob. in Eng) Rumor has it that Porter was chowan/choctaw. Full, half or quarter no one knows for sure but again- rumor says full. I can't find any of my Anges anywhere in a census. Anywhere in marriage or burial records. I am stumped. But maybe now that you know my Ange legends you might be able to start looking atChowan and/or Choctaw records available. In the meantime, I will keep my eyes open for your info as well as mine- as few Anges as there are in NC we might find a connection.
good luck all
