Catherine Kingfisher

Catherine Kingfisher 1752 - 1817 My 5G Grandmother (Nancy4 Ward, Tame Doe3 Raven, Anaway2 Nancy Moytoy, Amatoya1 Moytoy)

The most extensive Harlan family history states that Ellis Harlan married “Catherine Kingfisher, daughter of Kingfisher, a famous Chief, and Chigau”. Chigau is better known as Nancy Ward, from her marriage to a second husband Bryan Ward. This is the same Nancy Ward who was a friend to the whites, and aided the escape of Ezekiel Buffington from Cherokee upper town.

Catherine was the widow of John Walker at the time of her marriage to Ellis Harlan in Tennessee. Probably at the Inn operated by her mother at Woman Killer Ford on the Ocowee River.

Catherine "Ka Ti" KINGFISHER

Note:
"HISTORY OF THE CHEROKEE INDIANS", Dr. Emmet Starr, Hoffman Printing Co., Muskogee, 1984

She was a full blood Cherokee. She married Ellis Harlan a white man.

  6. Harlan families may find Harlan, Ky of interest, since it was built on an Indian mound. The town is supposedly named for a Civil War officer, but has very strong Cherokee links, then and now. Also note a Chief Kingfisher living near present day Salisbury, NC, with links to Crane's Nest Indian Towns in present Virginia and southeast Kentucky.

  8. As many of you may know, Kati Kingfisher and Harlan Ellis' daughter, Nannie, married Caleb Starr, not too far from Tellico Plains, TN. The long mountain ridge running north from the Hiwassee River is now called Starr Mountain.

  9. Chief Kingfisher, sometimes living near present day Salisbury, NC, is of interest for some King Fisher and Fisher and other related families. There appear to be some links to Crane's Nest Indian Towns of present day Virginia and southeast Kentucky. The Kingfisher Bird totem is also of interest, as well as Crane Bird. The Cherokee Mountains does have Piedmont links.

  13. Hi evveryone... I'm trying to find out, for sure, who the mother was of Pauline "Little Starr." Her father had married full sisters (at different times" and had many children with both. I am not sure if Pauline's mother was Sukie/Susie Maw/Maugh or Nellie Maw/Maugh... Pauline, I believe is a directly related to Catherine Kingfisher. Thank you in advance for your help :)

  16. Hello Catherine is my 7th great grandmother. My Great grandfather left home young and never looked back so my grandmother felt like she always only had part of his story. I am happy to tell her that I have traced us back to Nanyehi and her daughter. Thank you for sharing this info.
