    • Frances Thornton Smith & Family Search
      Per Frances:
      " Her father was Captain Marchand and was a Frenchman of dark complexion and this beautiful girl scarcely looked light enough for a half breed; but then her slightly curled hair, her quality of being vivacious and her correct manners and refinement unmistakably exposed her origin. Her mother was full-blooded Creek Indian of the Tribe of the Wind, the most aristocratic and powerful family in the Creek Nation. Sehoy was an Indian name which had attached to many persons of the family."
      In a newspaper article from Montgomery, Alabama, written by Peter A Brannon on August 2, 1931 he tells us where Sehoy is buried. "Sehoy is buried on the river bluff near Indian mound. The land belonged to John tate, her daughter's husband. It was later called "Connelly Place" at the end of North Court Street in Montgomery, Alabama."

      Of the Wind Clan of Oticiapofa. Also known as Sehoy HATALI.
    • Taken from "A History of Tallassee for Tallasseeans."

      Born at Old Fort Toulouse. Sehoy means "two-kept-on-after-the enemy"
    • Buried:
      Annalie, daughter of Elizabeth, granddaughter of Lachlan, tells when she was five years old when the state of Georgia put Lachlan's name of the top of the list of Loyalists who were to be killed.

      "Her grandpa deeded land to his children and left what money he could before going back to Scotland. Annalie said, "I could never forget him even if Uncle Alexander hadn't told me so much about him, I will always remember how straight and tall he was."

      "My Grandma, Sehoy, had died, " she daid. "He decided to spend his last years in Scotland, where he had banked his vast fortune. In a newspaper article from Montgomery, Alabama, written by Peter A Brannon, on August 2, 1931, he tells us where Sehoy Marchand McGillivray us buried." "Sehoy is buried on the river bluff nead the Indian mound. The land belonged to John Tate, her daughter's husband. It was later called the Connelly Place at the end of North Court Street in Montgomery Alabama."
