My great grandmother's name was Chief. Which of course is weird for a girl. lol.

But I also found she had a brother who was named Badger.
I was like OK here we go with the weird names again. :plzstop:
So I looked it up.

Badger is a part of NA mythology: a Native American Protection God.

Her sister Leola's name means prairie flower!



I am really blown away.  :'(

It is amazing tbh. This is what I was hoping I would find. Some of her siblings or relatives who were also named in the same spirit as she was.

I have an account on Ancestry I've traced one of my dad's linage back almost 500 years, but they were more documented. My moms side is more midwife, backwood mess  :-/ .

All I know is their names and my mom almost cried when I told her she didn't even know her grandparents on that side because they died young.

I definitely know the feeling. Just knowing the NAMES of your ancestors can definitely trigger feelings. she probably thought she'd never find that out. I'm sure she kissed and hugged you for a million years. :dead: :dead: the power of genealogy!

Grandparents especially, that is so crucial. Your parents' parents. I couldn't imagine not even knowing the names of my grandparents.

Keep trying , my love. I was almost ready to throw in the towel on my great grandmother's side until I tried a different angle , and everything unlocked. Finally got all of her siblings names , which is something I wanted for the LONGEST time.

The reward is well worth the work. Nothing worthwhile comes with the snap of a finger. Did you send in a DNA kit? That'll also help you find cousin matches who may more family information than you would.

The AncestryDNA cousin matches are VERY accurate.
