  2.   English Names from Greenwood Leflore District.

    With the passage by the U.S. Congress of the Indian Removal Act that same year, the legal mechanisms were put in place for President Andrew Jackson to negotiate with Indian groups for their deportation.

    The Choctaws, Mississippi’s largest Indian group, were the first southeastern Indians to accept removal with the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek in September 1830. The treaty provided that the Choctaws would receive land west of the Mississippi River in exchange for the remaining Choctaw lands in Mississippi. The Choctaws were given three years to leave Mississippi.

    English names listed on the 1831 “list of claims allowed under the treaty in Greenwood Leflore district”. These are “persons that have relinquished their land.

    In 1830, it tells of the destitute position that Susan's brother James Colbert found himself in, and about how he was trying to get back the slaves that he had inherited from his father James Logan Colbert, but had given or sold to a number of his friends or relatives. Listed among those friends or relatives was Benjamin Love, who had married Charlotte Burney (a granddaughter of young James Colbert's sister Susan), David Burney (a brother of Charlotte's), Simon Burney (the father of Charlotte and David, as well as the husband of Margaret "Peggy" Allen), and Susan Perry, John Perry, and Joseph Perry.
