    This is the only picture I have of my Great Great Grandpa, Josiah Looney. From L to R: Josiah Looney, George Barney Looney, and unknown Creek Indian. Josiah was in the Trail of Tears. There is also a bunch of his paperwork in the Creek Council House Museum in Oklahoma. Josiah became a Creek judge. I remember seeing a pair of leg irons that Josiah had broken in an attempt to fight the people who were forcing the removal of the Indians from Georgia.

      I believe we have a connection with this picture. George Barney Looney is my great great grandpa. Josiah is my grandpa. My name is Mattie Looney and I’m from Dustin, Oklahoma.

      Ms Mattie we're related!! George's brother Charles (or Charley like everyone called him) was my great grandpa.
