Those enslaved by her included Parmelia Rowe, Sallie Mayfield, Thomas Mayfield, Hannah West, and George Amos Mayfield. . Sallie was the daughter of Caleb Starr (white) and Nancy Harlan (a half-blood Cherokee); thus, Sallie was one-fourth Cherokee Indian by blood.1 She married Jesse Mayfield (Cherokee) and lived in the Flint District. Mark Bean and L. B. Bell testified that the couple moved to Texas in about 1847, with George Starr, young Jess Mayfield, and Tom Mayfield. Sallie took those she enslaved, including Parmelia Rowe and Sallie Mayfield, with her to Texas.There is general testimony that Sallie returned to the Cherokee Nation in 1868 or 1869, or 1870 at the latest. She and her husband were readmitted to Cherokee citizenship after 1880.
