Mahotah Love

Burney-Gaines Cemetery

Love County, Oklahoma


© by: King Martha

Furnished by Martha King

Mehotah Love  is my ggg grandmother.  Many Chickasaws are her descendants.  I am a
niece of Marie King Garland who self-published Chickasaw Loves and Allied  Families in 1970.  
My ggg grandmother Homahota was the second wife of Thomas Love, the Loyalist.  One of their children was Nancy Mahota Love who married James M. Boyd in about 1825.   They had 12 children.  The Chickasaws I know can trace their lineage to one of their children.
My Aunt Marie says in her book that "she was called Mehotey, Homahoti, and in her late life even Granny Ho-ti.   Although Mehotah is on her gravestone, I prefer to call her Homahota." Homahota is the name I always heard so I was surprised when I saw the gravestone. Mehotah probably was her preference.
