    November 21st 1798 Kiziah bought a one hundred acre tract of land in the County of Iredell, in the state of North Carolina for fifty shillings. Was registered July 20, 1800. (North Carolina Grant 316 - Iredell County Deed Book D-9). Unknown as to where her hysband Thomas was, assuming he is deceased. By May 10th, 1803 Kiziah had sold the same tract of land toher son Lewis for one hundred dollars. Registered January 18, 1804 (Iredell County Deed Book F, Page 173). She then moved to Wilkes County North Carolina.
    -
    Kisiah was listed as head of household in the Iredell County, North Carolina Census (page 610). In the 1810 Census Kisiah was listed head of household in Wilkes County, North Carolina (Page 862) as was her son Lewis (Page 876). Jefferson shown in 1810 census as Jephthru was in Iredell County, North Carolina (Page ??) as was his brother James (Page 168). The 1815 Poll listed Lewis, James and Jefferson all with one hundred acres of land in Iredell County, North Carolina.
    -
    About the year of 1820 Kiziah came to Wayne County, Kentucky from Wilkes County, North Carolina, and was with her son Jefferson, wife Lydia Upchurch Dishman and their nine children (listed in 1820 Wayne County, Kentucky census Page 100). In 1830 Jefferson took his family and Kiziah to the hills of Morgan County, Tennessee. This was the same time the Cherokee REmoval was being put together by the government and is possible that the family was trying to avoid the removal to the west because by 1840 Jefferson was back in Wayne County, Kentucky with most of his family. Some of the children
    marreid while in Tennessee and stayed there. Kiziah is said to be buried in Slickford, Wayne County, in the Dishman Cemetary. A cemetary that was located on the land her grandson, Jospeph Dishman, owned. her head stone a simple creek rock with no inscription. If Kiziah was Indian it was unlawful to bury any Indian with the whites.
    -
    Kiziah's other two sons, Lewis and James, stayed in North Carolina and raised their families in the area of Iredell County, North Carolina.

    From a letter posted on GenForum:
    Hi, Rita,
    I think the people at Genetree could fill us in on how many folks are needed. Probably not that many. My Dishman line came out of Wayne County, Kentucky in the 1850's and settled in Missouri. These Dishmans I am led to believe are from the Kizziah's line. The Dishmans that are found in Virginia the time of the American Revolution as far as I know would not have intermarried with the Native American groups at least early on, but some of their descendants may have married American Indians later. A study such as the one I propose might be able to ascertain whether or not and to what degree the Virginia Dishmans and the North Carolina/Kentucky/Tennessee Dishmans are related to each other. The same study could possibly give us a better idea on whether their is Cherokee blood in the North Carolina Dishman line or not. If we include known descendants of Chief Doublehead, who is alleged to be Kizziah's biological father, in the study, we may be able to ascertain whether or not the North Carolina branch of the Dishman family is related to this infamous historical figure. Personally what is more intriguing to me is if we are related to Doublehead, we are then related to Sequoyah, the Cherokee Indian who designed the Cherokee syllabary alphabet. And that would be very interesting. I am too tied up at work at this time to take on the coordination of this project, but it may shed light on the some issues which have been heavily debated by Dishman genealogists for many year. In some ways I am hoping DNA based testing will be able to explain the relatedness between these various groups of people. Feel free to get back to me if you have any ideas. Genetree would probably be able to give us a quote on the project. Thanks.
