However, her children, who were fathered by Jim Reed, were part Cherokee. I am a descendant of Belle Starr and Jim Reed on my father's father's side. I am a Reed. Belle was not part Cherokee.

I'm back after months and still have no updates on my side of family of Belle Starr. Have looked on family certificates death and births. Only have info from my mother who was a married to Timothy Smith at that time. Palestine Best was Belle Starrs cousin, I presume, came to her house in Muskogee,Ok. The women folks did not like her, because of the trouble she was in. My grandmothers daughter was Vinnie Sage Smith. Smiths in Muskogee, Ok . They are part Cherokee Indian, like Belle was. Belle was from Carthage,Mo. Cherokees came from Tn.,Mo.,and all over the south, forced to locate in Ok. Others came afterward to be near relatives. Belle had family in Muskogee and Ft. Smith,Ar. along with Missouri. I found Aunts on Indian Territory births. Whites mixing with Indians weren't always on the Cherokee rolls list. I'm still check for Indian ancestry and Belle Starrs family line. Only have family story. Women are hard to find in the past. onlt through census and birth certificates. Hi!

Watson from Florida who shot and Killed Belle...or was it another Watson? I've heard a story passed down through my family of who the real killer was. I have family ancestry from Eufaula, Indian Territory and have always been intrigued by the family story of Belle Starr. So was it the notorious Edgar J.
