Sallie Walkingstick

DO NOT CONFUSE/ MERGE with Susie E. Walkingstick as in Walkingstick, Susie E - Application Number 5535, different person, daughter of Henry Nave and Charlotte Reese, wife of Wilson Ealkingstick. Starr and Hicks both have Sallie as Susie Easky (Walkingstick)

Sally (Easkey) Tickaneesky (abt. 1800)
Born about 1800 in Old Cherokee Nation, Georgia
Died before 1851 in Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory, United States.
According to daughter Rebecca’s Guion Miller application her mother was named Sallie.

Biography

Sally Tickaneesky may have been a white woman.[1] She was born about 1800. She was on the Trail of Tears, along with her husband, Big Tecahneyeskee, and nine of her ten children.[2] She probably died shortly after arrival in Indian Territory.[3]
Curator Note: Sallie WAS a white woman as identified in several of her children Eastern Cherokee applications:

• Richard Ketcher in 13452
• Ellis Catcher (Tickaneeskee) in 6920
• John Catcher (Tickaneeskee) in 6922, and
• Jefferson Tickaneeskee in 5237 says his grandfather was Tickaneeskee Still and (adopted) Sallie Tickaneeskee (White) white woman.

See Rebecca (Tickaneesky) Neugin's 1932 Indian Pioneer Interview with Grant Foreman.[2][4]

Genealogy Notes

Starr and Hicks both have this woman as Susie Easky (Walkingstick). This is erroneous. Susan Walkingstick, born Susie Easky, daughter of Digiesgi (Dick Easky) and Patsy Tidwell, was born about 1820, according to the 1904 Cherokee Roll. She was still living at that time (1904) and listed as age 84. Also, her sister Aisley was married to Richard Tickaneesky (who certainly would not have married his mother's sister). Also, on her Dawes application in 1900, Rebecca Tickaneesky said her mother was Sally, but did not know the last name, and that she was a non-citizen and deceased -- so clearly not Susie Walkingstick. Susie Walkingstick may have been a substitute mother to the Ketcher children, but she was not their biological mother.[5][6][1]

Sallie was born "in Old Cherokee Nation". Her maiden name was either White or Hood. Jefferson (application #5237) said that Sally's maiden name was White and that Sally and Patsy White were sisters. Richard (application #13452) said that Sally's maiden name was Hood and had brothers: Till, Dick and Barrow Hood. I have found evidence that her last name was Walkingstick, a "non-citizen", born in Old Cherokee Nation and died "about 1858. Further evidence is needed to narrow it down or correct it.

Sally and Jim had 10 children: 1) Charles or Charley Ketcher (application #1370); 2) Richard (Dick) Ketcher; 3) Elizabeth or Lizzie (Ah-ska-quah) Catcher; 4) Moses or Mose (Wau-Si) Tickuneeskie/Catcher (census #1321, 1880 role); 5) Ellis (Sar-lee); 6) Ben Ketcher; 7) Linnie; 8) Rebecca Ketcher (census 328284/application #2448); 9) John; and, 10) Ollie. Each has a rich history and can be found in the Cherokee censuses and applications. Note: Emmet Starr's History of the Cherokee Indians(1921, reprint 2009, p. 344) has all of their last names as Tickaneesky.

In an article in "Twin Territories" about the family, it stated that Sallie and James had 17 children...I could only find reference to 10 anywhere. LM

In Archives.com, LeeJamison Tree, he states the birth year as 1810 and death year as 1851 for Sallie and that she and Big Tecaneyeskee were married in 1836 (which is several years after Rebecca and some of her siblings were born.)

indicates that Tickaneesky Still was married to Susie Easky

and that Susie later married Walkingstick (Hicks).

Susawe Easkey is a described as a descendant of Digieskee, a notable Cherokee warrior. Walkingstick of the Cherokee.

William P.Downing Interview 1937 Indian Pioneer History Colleciton

"Aunt Susie (Susawee Easky) Walkingstick came with the emigrants in 1836.(sic~1838-39?)

They settled on Walkingstick's farm one mile north of the Mission(Mulberry Mission)

Ed Walkingstick (Ooyaligatah), the oldest son of Susie, attended this mission. The mission was located fifty yards south of the Kansas City Southern (railway) bridge across Baron Fork River about a mile south of the (then) present Baron, Ok. post office.

The mission was there for fifteen years.........

The railroad covers most of the old cemetery. Four to five graves are still visible.

The mission only remained a few years after the removal of a blacksmith shop and commissary which were then located east of the mission on a mountain for about three years."

(The Mulberry Mission was an extension of the missionary efforts at Dwight Mission and Fairfield Mission to the Cherokee)
