written, and I cannot be sure of the numbers. Keep in mind, she was not living in Hancock County when her father died, and were probably not close to Simon's other white children, thus the obvious error in his death date. Since then I have found his true death date. It was recorded in an old French newspaper in New Orleans, LA, called L'AMI DES LOIS, or Friend of the Law, page 2, column 1. The obit was published on July 20, 1813, and said he died on "July 3, 1813, in Mobile, Alabama." See record scanned into the Memories section of his page.

Mary Ann "Marion" Pistikiokonay (LTX1-8KL) (1766-1834): Notes_______________________________________________________________
Title: Why was Simon Favre not named on his children's Indian records in the Government law suite 1843 - 1846? Simon Favre was not named in the Indian records of his children following the Treaty of dancing Rabbit Cheek in 1830 for two reasons. First, the government law suite #12742 was trying to establish Indian ancestry, NOT white ancestry. Second, Simon's children, in some cases, claimed to be "full Choctaw Indian." If they claimed only 1/2 Indian ancestry, they may not have qualified for the land grants they were applying for.
Title: Chief Pushmataha was not the father of Pistikiokonay
See my report dated November 10, 2017 explaining the reasons for this conclusion. See this report scanned into the Memories section of her page.
Title: Pistikiokonay is NOT Annie V. Luellen
In my Favre History, pgs. 75 - 77, I stated that Pistikiokonay was the same person as Annie V. Luellen. In 1995 I received a letter from Sidney R. Sandifer, a long time researcher of the "Llewyellyn." He sent me enough information that convinced me I made a mistake. This letter, and pages 75 - 77 are scanned into the Memories section of Pistikiokonay's page.
Title: Her title
With her father, Franchimastabe, a well known Choctaw Indian Chief, that would make her a Choctaw Princess.
Title: Source
Call me at 228-255-4100 for sources. When I wrote my Favre Family in 1989, I was given some unproven information that Chief Pushmataha was Simon Favre's father-in-law, but I made a serious error that many people are now using. Also see sources in the Memories section of her page above.
Alexis "Lexy" Favre (KCZX-1C9) (1784-1848): Notes__________________________________________________________________________________
Title: .His place of death
His relative, Joel Joseph Favre, said he saw Lexy's grave when a local "old lady" showed it to him. We know from records that he traveled to an Indian reservation in Arkansas, but returned after a year. Thus, we know he died in Hancock County. See record scanned into the Memories section of his page.
