But of the seed of the Proud Angel,
Driven forth from Heaven"

The Cherokee people believe in the "fairy folk". The Cherokee call them Nunnehi or Yunwi Tsunsdi, or "Little People" in the Cherokee language. Nunnehi means the "people who live anywhere," perhaps because they lived in strange places, underground, inside mountains & under streams.

in Scots Gaelic lore, faeries were regarded as either fallen angels, non-human nature spirits, or spirits of the dead. They live in 'faerie mounds' awaiting reincarnation.

I'm currently writing a folklore of Scotland:

"Not the seed of Adam are we,
Nor is Abraham our father,
But of the seed of the Proud Angel,
Driven forth from Heaven"

In the Highlands, there was a belief that faeries were fallen angels.

A painting titled Froschschaukel (Frog Swing) by the German artist and illustrator Heinrich Schlitt (1849–1923). 
It features a gnome and several frogs.  Two frogs are balanced on a wooden plank acting as a seesaw over water.
On the left, a gnome with a long white beard, wearing a red cap and coat, is smoking a pipe and observing the scene.
Another frog sits on the left side of the seesaw, its feet just touching the water.
A third frog sits on the right side, higher up.
A large bee or fly is flying in the center background.

Scots folklorist, F. Marion McNeill believed that faeries were a folk memory from our Neolithic ancestors - that they had a malevolent nature, moved at night, stole babies to rear as their own, and were skilled in magic.

In Cumbrian dialects, blackthorn is
bullister, the Mother of the Woods

Moon Faeries are malevolent fae folk who inhabit blackthorn and protect the tree from human interference. Never cut blackthorn, or these faeries will burn down your house!

Myths and stories about faeries do not have a single origin. Folk theories about the origins of faeries include casting them as either angels or demons; supernatural beings; Pagan deities; Elementals/ nature spirits.

My late grandmother would say that Galloway was the last stronghold of the Ancient Folk, faeries. In 1850, a hawthorn tree halted the widening of the road between Glenluce and Newton Stewart because it was 'faerie property'.

Fae is sitting criss-cross with her hands on one of her shins, arms crossed at the wrists grabbing her leg. She’s sitting in green, blue and pink lighting in front of a dark green velvet backdrop made up of layered curtains; the top layer is green lace, faux vines, and extra faux vines with LEDs in the strands. She’s wearing iridescent faerie wings and faux elf ears. She has a short, bright green pixie cut. Her makeup is green, silvery and sparkles and has large black winged eyeliner. She’s wearing round, black wire frame glasses, black plugs in stretched ears, and dangling green earrings from the plugs with a sun decal in them. She’s wearing a triple moon necklace that has a tree of life emblem dangling from the center, and a longer chain necklace that is hidden by her cleavage and the way her arms are folded. She’s wearing black mesh and lace lingerie. The top is a black bralette that’s see through and has solid red roses with green leaves embroidered on each cup for coverage. She’s wearing a lace bottom with thin straps over the hips, and a second set of thin straps that sit higher up on the hips and waist.
