Esther met her Cowboy husband "Ray Casteel" at a family ranch in Colorado . They married and moved to New Mexico, where they raised a large family. Esther was part Native American. This Cowboy and Indian romance song was her favorite.
The song was performed by other artists, including "Cecil Ziebart " who delivered a top of the charts Polka musical hit for over 16 weeks in the late 1960's, earning "Rose of Cherokee" a gold label.
Rose of Cherokee also earned Esther Casteel recognition in "Who's Who" in Country Music and a Best Western Country Writer Award.

__________
Now the moonlights shining on my lonely campfire,
I'm sure it's shining on the one who waits for me,
on the banks of the Cimmaron River where I met my
little Rose of Cherokee;
Her black hair glistened in the silky moonlight,
as her warm eyes turned so pleadingly to me,
I held her in my arms and softly whispered,
you will always be my Rose of Cherokee;
Now the moonlights shinning on my lonely campfire,
as it's shinning on the one who waits for me,
as it lights up the banks of the river,
there I'll meet again my Rose of Cherokee;
Now the cattle trails no longer lonely,
and the jingling of my spurs just seem to say,
remember how the pound of those hoof beats,
drowned out her sobbing as you rode away;
Now the moonlights shining on my lonely campfire,
I'm sure it's shining on the one who waits for me,
on the banks of the Cimmaron River,
where I met my little Rose of Cherokee;
There I'll meet again my Rose of Cherokee.
