Hi Coleen,
I am a 4th great granddaughter of Reverend John Wesley Cubbage, and his wife, Sarah Feathers.Reverend John Wesley Cubbage and his brother, Abraham Cubbage both married Feathers sisters.John married Sarah, as you have noted, and Abraham married Anna.I too have read (or heard, I can't remember which) that they were full blooded Cherokee.However, I have not to date found any proof of this.This doesn't mean that it isn't true, just that I can't find anything.Sarah died in Knox County, Illinois.I was out at the cemetery in Illinois over the summer to uncover the stones.I also show that Sarah and Anna's father was named Jacob.I know that he and his wife Mary moved to Illinois in 1848/1849, but I can't find them on any census in any county there from 1850 onward.
Please contact me privately, and I can share much more information.
