  • Notes 
    • Delila's grandmother was supposedly a full blooded Cherokee. All sides of this family,some have never come in contact with one another, state this fact. Delila's mother was a Mayfield and her (her mothers) father was English. The Mayfield girl married a Scotchman named Kirby. Aunt Mamie thinks that was Mary Mayfield and Sheard Kirby, Shird ,Shirden or Sheridan. It probably was as Delila and James Pope had a son named Sherd, Sherdan or Sheridan. S. A. Pope family stories have him named Sherd Shaver Pope.May 15,1865 Alexanderia,P.O. Springdale, Leavenworth Co. Ks. census lists James H.
