Excerpt from Federalist Papers No. 42 by James Madison
http://madison.thefreelibrary.com/Federalist-Papers-Authored-by-James-Madison/1-8

The regulation of commerce with the Indian tribes is very properly unfettered from two limitations in the articles of Confederation, which render the provision obscure and contradictory. The power is there restrained to Indians, not members of any of the States, and is not to violate or infringe the legislative right of any State within its own limits. What description of Indians are to be deemed members of a State, is not yet settled, and has been a question of frequent perplexity and contention in the federal councils. And how the trade with Indians, though not members of a State, yet residing within its legislative jurisdiction, can be regulated by an external authority, without so far intruding on the internal rights of legislation, is absolutely incomprehensible. This is not the only case in which the articles of Confederation have inconsiderately endeavored to accomplish impossibilities; to reconcile a partial sovereignty in the Union, with complete sovereignty in the States; to subvert a mathematical axiom, by taking away a part, and letting the whole remain.

The dissimilarity in the rules of naturalization has long been remarked as a fault in our system, and as laying a foundation for intricate and delicate questions. In the fourth article of the Confederation, it is declared "that the FREE INHABITANTS of each of these States, paupers, vagabonds, and fugitives from justice, excepted, shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of FREE CITIZENS in the several States; and THE PEOPLE of each State shall, in every other, enjoy all the privileges of trade and commerce," etc. There is a confusion of language here, which is remarkable. Why the terms FREE INHABITANTS are used in one part of the article, FREE CITIZENS in another, and PEOPLE in another; or what was meant by superadding to "all privileges and immunities of free citizens," "all the privileges of trade and commerce," cannot easily be determined. It seems to be a construction scarcely avoidable, however, that those who come under the denomination of FREE INHABITANTS of a State, although not citizens of such State, are entitled, in every other State, to all the privileges of FREE CITIZENS of the latter; that is, to greater privileges than they may be entitled to in their own State: so that it may be in the power of a particular State, or rather every State is laid under a necessity, not only to confer the rights of citizenship in other States upon any whom it may admit to such rights within itself, but upon any whom it may allow to become inhabitants within its jurisdiction. But were an exposition of the term "inhabitants" to be admitted which would confine the stipulated privileges to citizens alone, the difficulty is diminished only, not removed. The very improper power would still be retained by each State, of naturalizing aliens in every other State. In one State, residence for a short term confirms all the rights of citizenship: in another, qualifications of greater importance are required. An alien, therefore, legally incapacitated for certain rights in the latter, may, by previous residence only in the former, elude his incapacity; and thus the law of one State be preposterously rendered paramount to the law of another, within the jurisdiction of the other. We owe it to mere casualty, that very serious embarrassments on this subject have been hitherto escaped. By the laws of several States, certain descriptions of aliens, who had rendered themselves obnoxious, were laid under interdicts inconsistent not only with the rights of citizenship but with the privilege of residence. What would have been the consequence, if such persons, by residence or otherwise, had acquired the character of citizens under the laws of another State, and then asserted their rights as such, both to residence and citizenship, within the State proscribing them? Whatever the legal consequences might have been, other consequences would probably have resulted, of too serious a nature not to be provided against. The new Constitution has accordingly, with great propriety, made provision against them, and all others proceeding from the defect of the Confederation on this head, by authorizing the general government to establish a uniform rule of naturalization throughout the United States.

In the fourth Article it was agreed, the better to secure and perpetuate mutual friendship and intercourse among the people of the several States in this Union, that "the free inhabitants of each of these States,--paupers, vagabonds and fugitives from justice excepted,--shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several States;
The word "citizen" imports the same as the word "freeman" in our old Acts of Assembly; and means every white man, who, by birth or naturalization, is or may be qualified to exercise and enjoy, under like circumstances, all the rights which any native born, white inhabitant of the State does or can enjoy. And every white man, born or naturalized in any other State, is such a citizen of such other State as to be entitled, in this State, to all the civil rights of citizenship, and by residence and other qualifications to all the political rights.

Excerpt from Federalist Papers No. 42 by James Madison
http://madison.thefreelibrary.com/Federalist-Papers-Authored-by-James-Madison/1-8

The regulation of commerce with the Indian tribes is very properly unfettered from two limitations in the articles of Confederation, which render the provision obscure and contradictory. The power is there restrained to Indians, not members of any of the States, and is not to violate or infringe the legislative right of any State within its own limits. What description of Indians are to be deemed members of a State, is not yet settled, and has been a question of frequent perplexity and contention in the federal councils. And how the trade with Indians, though not members of a State, yet residing within its legislative jurisdiction, can be regulated by an external authority, without so far intruding on the internal rights of legislation, is absolutely incomprehensible. This is not the only case in which the articles of Confederation have inconsiderately endeavored to accomplish impossibilities; to reconcile a partial sovereignty in the Union, with complete sovereignty in the States; to subvert a mathematical axiom, by taking away a part, and letting the whole remain.

The dissimilarity in the rules of naturalization has long been remarked as a fault in our system, and as laying a foundation for intricate and delicate questions. In the fourth article of the Confederation, it is declared "that the FREE INHABITANTS of each of these States, paupers, vagabonds, and fugitives from justice, excepted, shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of FREE CITIZENS in the several States; and THE PEOPLE of each State shall, in every other, enjoy all the privileges of trade and commerce," etc. There is a confusion of language here, which is remarkable. Why the terms FREE INHABITANTS are used in one part of the article, FREE CITIZENS in another, and PEOPLE in another; or what was meant by superadding to "all privileges and immunities of free citizens," "all the privileges of trade and commerce," cannot easily be determined. It seems to be a construction scarcely avoidable, however, that those who come under the denomination of FREE INHABITANTS of a State, although not citizens of such State, are entitled, in every other State, to all the privileges of FREE CITIZENS of the latter; that is, to greater privileges than they may be entitled to in their own State: so that it may be in the power of a particular State, or rather every State is laid under a necessity, not only to confer the rights of citizenship in other States upon any whom it may admit to such rights within itself, but upon any whom it may allow to become inhabitants within its jurisdiction. But were an exposition of the term "inhabitants" to be admitted which would confine the stipulated privileges to citizens alone, the difficulty is diminished only, not removed. The very improper power would still be retained by each State, of naturalizing aliens in every other State. In one State, residence for a short term confirms all the rights of citizenship: in another, qualifications of greater importance are required. An alien, therefore, legally incapacitated for certain rights in the latter, may, by previous residence only in the former, elude his incapacity; and thus the law of one State be preposterously rendered paramount to the law of another, within the jurisdiction of the other. We owe it to mere casualty, that very serious embarrassments on this subject have been hitherto escaped. By the laws of several States, certain descriptions of aliens, who had rendered themselves obnoxious, were laid under interdicts inconsistent not only with the rights of citizenship but with the privilege of residence. What would have been the consequence, if such persons, by residence or otherwise, had acquired the character of citizens under the laws of another State, and then asserted their rights as such, both to residence and citizenship, within the State proscribing them? Whatever the legal consequences might have been, other consequences would probably have resulted, of too serious a nature not to be provided against. The new Constitution has accordingly, with great propriety, made provision against them, and all others proceeding from the defect of the Confederation on this head, by authorizing the general government to establish a uniform rule of naturalization throughout the United States.

"DYE, William (Sarah Reynolds, former widow). R8719.
17 Nov. 1849. Pulaski Co., Ky. Sarah Reynolds of said county, aged 67,
declares her maiden name was Sarah Gordon. She resided in Caswell Co., N.C.,
and there on 16 June 1798 was married to William Dye by Archd. Samuel, a
justice of the peace. She had a memorandum of her marriage in a Bible but she
gave the Bible to one of her sons who moved to Missouri and she supposes he
took it with him. William Dye died in 1823. After that she married Matthew
Reynolds, and he died six years ago last December.
William Dye stated he resided in Halifax Co., VA and was in Gen. Greene's
army and in the battle of Guilford. She thinks his captain's name at that
battle was Thompson. She heard him speak of the battle of Brandywine but does
not remember whether he was in that battle himself. He and John Yeates talked
about the scenes of that battle as if they were both eye witnesses. He
described the place where the battle commenced as being in an old field where
an old apple orchard had been turned out and that there were gullies or drains
where the battle was fought, that ran with blood as the water would after a
shower of rain. He said in the service he performed in augmenting Gen.
Greene's army he was engaged about two weeks in marching through the country
to Gen. Greene and then at night was marched back in to the country to obtain
more recruits. At the battle of Guilford his captain (Thompson) was killed
and his colonel was badly wounded, shot through the thigh.
She saw his discharge and a printed paper which purported to be his oath of
allegiance. These two papers were burned. The night before they started from
North Carolina to Kentucky her husband had a friend helping him to examine his
papers. They saved all the papers they thought would be of value to him and
when they came to his discharge and oath of allegiance it was siad he had
better save them, but he said, No, he had kept them about twenty-five years
and they had never done him any good and they were cast into the fire with the
other useless papers.
He stated he was at the siege of Yorktown at the close of the war. They
labored twenty-odd days and nights carrying forward the entrenchments.
Washington wrote a deceptive letter designed to fall into the hands of the
British and started the officer with it and the British took him prisoner and
examined the letter and were deceived by it as Washington designed. Her
husband was present at the surrender of Cornwallis and saw that officer come
out and surrender his sword to Washington. He said Cornwallis walked up to
where Washington stood and struck his sword into the ground near Washington.
Washington took his sword and turned it about and looked at it and then handed
it back to Cornwallis again.
She resides ten miles from the Court House of her county and cannot go to the
Court House. She is afflicted with phthysick.
18 Aug. 1851. Pulaski Co., Ky. Shaderach (X) Dye of said county, aged 69,
declares he was present at the house of Polly Randal in Caswell Co., N.C., in
June 1799 when the marriage ceremony was performed of William Dye to Sarah
Gordin. She was afterward married to Matthew Reynolds. The marriage was
performed by a justice of the peace, Archd. Samuels. The affiant was a son of
William Dye and heard him speak of his services in the Revolutionary War and
recollects that the captain who commanded him at the battle of Guilford was
named Thompson. William Dye said he was killed in the battle."

On the 2nd day of March, 1878, there were two storms raging in the Gilpin section of Casey County, one on the north side of Jonothan Fork and the other on the south side of Jonothan Fork. They came together about the head of the creek and formed a tornado which wwept everything in its path as it traveled at a terrific speed.
The first building of any note in the path of the storm was a cabin in which James Lawless and family lived. It took the top off this building and passed on to the home of Vinson G Wesley, where Mr. Wesley and wife, Peg, as she was familiarly known, Bell and ann, two daughters, also V. Green Richardson, Johnson Sloan and William Taylor, a brother of Mrs. Wesley, were sitting around in the kitchen after having eaten dinner.
Hearing a stormcoming they went into the front room, which was larger and all managed to get into the front room except Mr. Richardson, who saw rails, boards and lumber flying in the air as he reached the door and turned back into the kitchen, as there was an open passway between the kitchen and the front room. He saw the top of the kitchen and the walls blown away down to the floor and that was the last he knew until he came to himself under a lot of logs. He attempted to extricate himself but found that he was held fast. About this time there came another gust of wind and the logs were blown away.
He got up and looked around but could not see the house or barn and said for a few minutes he did not know whether he was in another world or not. By this time the neighbors had begun to gather and he was taken in charge.
The body of uncle Vince was found inside the yard with one arm cut off and a wall of the house was lying on top of him. The girls were all dead. The body of Aunt Peg was found about a quarter of a mile away. All her clothes were stripped from her. Her underskirt which was made of lindsey was found about seven mules away on the Elliott place. Some of the wuilts that were blown from the bed were also found near the body. It has always been thought that Aunt Peg and the bed were taken up in the "funnel" of the tornado as Aunt Peg would always run and get in bed in time of a storm, as there was an old saying that feathers were a non-conductor of lightning.
The house was built of logs and they were scattered for a quarter of a mile. One of the logs was carried about a quarter of a mile and driven into the ground six or seven feet. There was a beech tree standing near the spring that was about 16 inches in diameter and it was some 12 or 14 feet to the first limb. The wind twisted it around, until it was a bundle of splinters, but the roots remained intact. The barn was also built of logs, but the floor was about three feet above the ground, this space used for a sheep house, then the walls were built on top of this floor. A shed was built all around and stalls were in this shed. The stock must have all been in or around the barn when the storm struck as they were found nearby all dead except the sheep which were in the sheep house. All the barn was blown away except the sheep house part. A five dollar bill was found hanging on a briar in perfect condition.
The tornado passed through the Mt. Olive section, tearing down fences, uprooting trees and the dwelling of Dr. Sherd McClure was moved a few inches from its foundatin.
The age of the victims were:
Vinson G. Wesley 57 years
Margaret (Peg) Wesley 53 years
Elizabeth Ann Wesley 25 years
Martha Bell Wesley 17 years

Excerpt from Federalist Papers No. 42 by James Madison
http://madison.thefreelibrary.com/Federalist-Papers-Authored-by-James-Madison/1-8

The regulation of commerce with the Indian tribes is very properly unfettered from two limitations in the articles of Confederation, which render the provision obscure and contradictory. The power is there restrained to Indians, not members of any of the States, and is not to violate or infringe the legislative right of any State within its own limits. What description of Indians are to be deemed members of a State, is not yet settled, and has been a question of frequent perplexity and contention in the federal councils. And how the trade with Indians, though not members of a State, yet residing within its legislative jurisdiction, can be regulated by an external authority, without so far intruding on the internal rights of legislation, is absolutely incomprehensible. This is not the only case in which the articles of Confederation have inconsiderately endeavored to accomplish impossibilities; to reconcile a partial sovereignty in the Union, with complete sovereignty in the States; to subvert a mathematical axiom, by taking away a part, and letting the whole remain.

The dissimilarity in the rules of naturalization has long been remarked as a fault in our system, and as laying a foundation for intricate and delicate questions. In the fourth article of the Confederation, it is declared "that the FREE INHABITANTS of each of these States, paupers, vagabonds, and fugitives from justice, excepted, shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of FREE CITIZENS in the several States; and THE PEOPLE of each State shall, in every other, enjoy all the privileges of trade and commerce," etc. There is a confusion of language here, which is remarkable. Why the terms FREE INHABITANTS are used in one part of the article, FREE CITIZENS in another, and PEOPLE in another; or what was meant by superadding to "all privileges and immunities of free citizens," "all the privileges of trade and commerce," cannot easily be determined. It seems to be a construction scarcely avoidable, however, that those who come under the denomination of FREE INHABITANTS of a State, although not citizens of such State, are entitled, in every other State, to all the privileges of FREE CITIZENS of the latter; that is, to greater privileges than they may be entitled to in their own State: so that it may be in the power of a particular State, or rather every State is laid under a necessity, not only to confer the rights of citizenship in other States upon any whom it may admit to such rights within itself, but upon any whom it may allow to become inhabitants within its jurisdiction. But were an exposition of the term "inhabitants" to be admitted which would confine the stipulated privileges to citizens alone, the difficulty is diminished only, not removed. The very improper power would still be retained by each State, of naturalizing aliens in every other State. In one State, residence for a short term confirms all the rights of citizenship: in another, qualifications of greater importance are required. An alien, therefore, legally incapacitated for certain rights in the latter, may, by previous residence only in the former, elude his incapacity; and thus the law of one State be preposterously rendered paramount to the law of another, within the jurisdiction of the other. We owe it to mere casualty, that very serious embarrassments on this subject have been hitherto escaped. By the laws of several States, certain descriptions of aliens, who had rendered themselves obnoxious, were laid under interdicts inconsistent not only with the rights of citizenship but with the privilege of residence. What would have been the consequence, if such persons, by residence or otherwise, had acquired the character of citizens under the laws of another State, and then asserted their rights as such, both to residence and citizenship, within the State proscribing them? Whatever the legal consequences might have been, other consequences would probably have resulted, of too serious a nature not to be provided against. The new Constitution has accordingly, with great propriety, made provision against them, and all others proceeding from the defect of the Confederation on this head, by authorizing the general government to establish a uniform rule of naturalization throughout the United States.

Excerpt from Founders Constitution
http://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/a4_2_1s17.html
In the fourth Article it was agreed, the better to secure and perpetuate mutual friendship and intercourse among the people of the several States in this Union, that "the free inhabitants of each of these States,--paupers, vagabonds and fugitives from justice excepted,--shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several States;
The word "citizen" imports the same as the word "freeman" in our old Acts of Assembly; and means every white man, who, by birth or naturalization, is or may be qualified to exercise and enjoy, under like circumstances, all the rights which any native born, white inhabitant of the State does or can enjoy. And every white man, born or naturalized in any other State, is such a citizen of such other State as to be entitled, in this State, to all the civil rights of citizenship, and by residence and other qualifications to all the political rights.
Following comes from <http://www.aagsnc.org/columns/mar99col.htm> -- Buffalo Ridge Cherokee - Remnants of a Nation Divided

According to tradition, the Allegeni, the ancestors of the modern Cherokee, were defeated by the Delaware-Iroquois alliance and moved into Virginia. The settled in New Holston Valley after residing for a period of time at the Peaks of Otter in Bedford County 4(Johnson, 34). In just twenty years, from 1880 to 1900, the Indians in Amherst County were systematically erased from the record books by the stroke of a pen. They were forced by law in 1705 to be called "mulatto" and then called "black" in 1900. Many of the Cherokee descendants of Amherst County accepted this term without resistance. In fact, by 1850, as "Free Inhabitants" of Amherst County, the Cherokee families lived in the communities with blacks and whites and many of the families "went" for black or white, depending on the racial community in which they lived and felt secure ( p. 37).

 1836 - 1897 John Marion Barber 61 61 It is said that John fathered 19 children w @ least 3 different women

Hi Linda:
I was just looking at your website on Family Tree Maker. You have the following:
(I think it's under where you have Pochantas lineage):
John Marion Barber (b. 1836):
1st. md. Malvina Spaw
2nd. md. Emily Spaw
3rd. md. Matilda Wesley
4th. md. Sophia Wesley

John was only Married 2 times.
John M. Barber (b. 1836)  "1st. married" 1855 to Malvina (Spaw).
He "2nd. married" 1892 to Sophia (Wesley) Warren.

As for Emily, she was living in the household with John in the 1870 Census of Casey Co.,
Ky. - shown as Housekeeper.  / 1880 Census of Casey Co., Ky. they were still living in
the same household, except this time, it shows her as his "wife."  I have found absolutely
no "Legal Documents" showing a marriage for these two. But if Kentucky in that time
frame recognized "Common-Law" than they may have been common-law; but still no
documents has ever been located for them.

As for Matilda, her & John were NEVER married, or never lived together. Yes they had
a son together, but there absolutely no "Legal Documents" even showing that. The child
had told one of his children or grandchildren that his father was John Barber.

I am a descendant from John & Malvina.  My great-grandfather was their son.
