Very Good Suggestion. Also the University Library should have good history
books by Adolph (Dial?), et al.  I found about twenty great Lumbee websites
and e-mailed them to the lady interested in the Lumbee; with Oxendine,
Lowery, Hornbuckle etc., her family is chock full of Lumbee names.  In
Charlotte, N.C., we have a large Lumbee community, I no not why. I have no
Lumbee blood but I do have East of the Missisippi River, Kaskaskia
Illinweck, my Indian name being Ne-p8-pa-t8-8a, in English "Walkslowly",
meaning turtle after an event in my life. My ancestress was
Ayw-wee-pah-kee-noo-kah, or Mme.  Catherine E8ipakin8ca Colon who died old
up-river Mobile, Ala.  Jim, Charlotte, N.C.

 Jim, for information about the Lumbee Indians, I would suggest that you

NC.
