City DescriptionAndrews is a town in Cherokee County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 1,602 at the 2000 census.
Andrews is located at 35°12′0″N 83°49′35″W / 35.2, -83.82639 (35.200011, -83.826252).
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 1.4 square miles (3.5 km²), all of it land.
Valley Town Township dominates the eastern part of Cherokee County. The area is bordered by Graham county, Clay county, and Macon county. Within the township are the towns of Marble, Andrews, and Topton.
At the heart of the township is the Valley River. Once known by the Cherokee name Gunahita, meaning long, the Valley River begins near the Topton community in the far eastern corner of the county, and meanders southeasterly until it meets the Hiwassee River below Murphy.
The area is rich in Native American history. An 1805 map shows the area as the Cherokee settlement Toonatla. It was later listed on a map of the Cherokee Nation as Gunahita. By the time of the removal of the Cherokee Indians in 1838, it was known as Konehetee, or valley. One of the most infamous periods in history, the removal of the Cherokee and the Trail of Tears, also impacted the valley. Fort ... Read MoreCity Contained By:- Cherokee County

Questions Possibly Related to Andrews, North CarolinaProvided By Y! Answers
Looking for a public golf course in western north carolina?
Question:
I am looking for a cheap public golf course in Western North Carolina in the Franklin, Murphy, Andrews area, any suggestions, preferably something not too crowded or pricey, thanks
Can everyone please include prices if known, since cheap is a relative term...
thanks in advance and thanks for the good answers so far.
Answer:
Well, you don't have very many options (much to my dismay). I've been up in this area for about a year now, and the golf pickings are slim.
There is the Cherokee Country Club in Murphy, but I haven't played it. I've heard it's a decent track, though.
There is Mill Creek Country Club in Franklin. It's a fair course. Actually, the course itself is about a 6 or 7 on a scale of 10, but the rest of the course (clubhouse, putting green, grille, etc...) is a little below average. If you just care about the golf, I'd play here. Their twilight rates are pretty cheap and are all you can play.
If you want to come up the road a little bit more, near Bryson City, in Whittier, NC (exit 72 off US-74) is the Smoky Mountain Country Club. Their prices are a little bit higher, but the course is a bit nicer, and the grille is awesome!!!
Finally, the best golf around is either Maggie Valley Golf Course (fairly pricey but nice course) or Waynesville Country Club Inn (better prices and solid course).
If you really want a treat, make a trip out to Asheville and play the Grove Park Inn's course. The twilight rate is $85 ($150 in the morning) and it's a phenomenal course!!!
Have fun!

Can anyone help me to look for my Dads family tree. Anything appreciated very much?
Question:
Born in North Carolina, Andrews I think. Cherokee County I think. Birth name LeeRoyClark Born in 1932 or 1931 to Charles Edward Clark and Arte Robinson. Brothers and sisters all deceased last was EllaMae, Frances,Lloyd Clark. Was a Mason in La and possibly Eagle Pass Texas. Veteran USAF Lost touch of father was not definitely located until after death by his sister Frances Clark . Would like so much for my children and grandchildren to have knowledge of the paternal family they may never know. He has three living children and I don't know if either of them other than me use this.More blanks than facts I know but anything would be a start
Answer:
More than likely one doesn't look for or find a family tree, one builds it by research & documentation. Finding one already made means that someone of (likely) your generation already did it and put it online for you to find.
For starts, SSDI may have him: Lee Roy CLARK
Birth Date: 25 May 1932
Death Date: 10 Apr 1998
State or Territory Where Number Was Issued: North Carolina
ZIP Code: 78852
Localities: Eagle Pass, Maverick, Texas
You already have the next step, his parents - those you can find on Census from 1930 on back. And then his grandparents &c. You can order his SS file and maybe a genealogy copy of his death certificate, and likely the same goes for his parents'. You may find obits, Eagle Pass isn't that big a place. It's a start.
