I'm not sure this is an appropriate place to ask this question since I am new to this group, but I will ask it anyway to see what responses I may get. A friend of mine named Elnora has heard that her name is Cherokee, and she wonders what it means. Can anyone reading this give me an answer? If so, I will be very grateful. (My great grandmother was Cherokee of the Oconoluftee band and I am just beginning my search for more information about her and my other ancestors.) genebw1
