Finding Cherokee Ancestors Workshop Planned May 14 Persons interested in learning how to trace their Cherokee heritage are invited to enroll in a day-long workshop "Finding Your Cherokee Ancestors" to be held May 14 at Community Christian Church, 2109 West Grand, Ponca City. Sponsored by the Pioneer Genealogical Society, the workshop will feature three speakers, from the Cherokee National Historical Society, using projector and screen, discussion, lecture, and question and answer sessions. Gene Norris, genealogist for the Cherokee National Historical Society, author of several family histories, and instructor in a Cherokee National History Course, will discuss how to begin researching for Cherokee ancestors and what records are available. He will also conduct a question and answer session during the latter part of the workshop. Tom Mooney has served as Archivist for the Cherokee National Historical Society for more than 25 years. Also an author, Mooney has compiled and written "Exploring Your Cherokee Ancestry," a basic tool in tracing Cherokee roots. Mooney will be speaking about using the internet to trace Cherokee ancestry including websites that are available. Roy Hamilton, born in Adair County is a registered citizen of the Cherokee Nation and has also authored a book titled "Ned Christie, the Last Cherokee Warrior." He teaches a Cherokee Nation History Course offered by the Cherokee Nation, and is a 20-year volunteer genealogist with the Historical Society. Hamilton will discuss the early day Dawes Roll and the Guion Miller Roll and how to glean information from these and other early-day rolls. Norris said, "the sessions won't be a basic beginner workshop, and attendees should know who they are, who their parents are, grandparents are, etc. It would help if attendees have a basic knowledge of how to do genealogy research for their ancestors." Norris also reminds that Cherokee records stopped when Oklahoma became a state in 1907. After that date, only federal, state and county records are available and they do not document if the subject is a member of the Cherokee Nation. Prior to 1907, Cherokee birth, death, and registered membership records were included in such documents as the Guion Miller Roll (1906-1909), Dawes (1900-1902) and in the common population census records and other records kept by the Cherokee National Council. Basically, the workshop will cover the different resources available for Cherokee research, says Norris. In addition, he reminded that "Cherokee is a nationality — not a race." In other words, being Cherokee is a matter of citizenship and not blood. In early days, a person of Cherokee blood was free to live anywhere they wanted, but they were not considered Cherokee Nation citizens unless they were recognized as such by the Cherokee Nation government and registered on a roll.In addition to reviewing information available in the rolls, Norris, Mooney and Hamilton tell how and why the records were created. Cost of registration, if received by May 7, will be $35 for individuals and $42 for couples. Registrations received after May 7 will be $40 and $47. A barbecue lunch and information materials are included in the enrollment fee. Walk-in students are welcome but lunch will not be available for those who did not pre-register. Registration check-in begins at 8:30 a.m., classes start at 9 a.m. For more information call 580-762-7272. To register for the May 14 workshop, send name, address, phone number and a check to Pioneer Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 1965, Ponca City, OK 74602.

Dortha, I do not have any new info on the Darks, but I looked at the censuses on Ancestry.com, and I found the 1870 Fourche Twp, Pulaski Co census. Delilah Dark, who could very well be the Dilly Dark, Bill Dark's mother in 1850 census. I found Delia Dark age 46 in the 1860 census, Pulaski County, Little Rock. She was living with a James A Hutchings. This appears to be the same James Hutchings with whom she was living in 1850 (along with Bill) in the Little Rock hotel. There is no Mary Dark with Delilah/Dilly/Delia Dark in 1850 or 1860. In 1860 I found Baker Cypert, age 79, with wife Malinda, age 75 and a daughter Mary, living in Red River Twp Searcy Co. This is probably not the Mary Cypert who shows up in the 1870 census, as that Mary has children Mary C-14, Delilia-12; William-12; Thomas-9, Francis-6, Eluise-1. I don't know who this Mary Cypert is/nor who her husband was. There may be a younger Baker Cypert, but I don't know about him.

Questions about the CD "Searcy County Ancestor Information Exchange" should come to me personally at: [email protected] This is to avoid questions of SPAM. James Johnston

I read with interest the recent postings regarding the ledger of my maternal gr. grandfather, Lewis C. Morrison. And, how Claudia Barnes Massey shared this information with others. Unfortunatley, Claudia now suffers from Alzheimer's. Claudia was born and raised in the Campbell Community in Searcy County, and was a schoolteacher for many years. She is the daughter of William J. Barnes and Nora Sutterfield. Her late husband, Willie Lee Massey, was the son of Benjamin D. Massey and Ada Elizabeth Morrison. Claudia and her late brother, Carl Barnes, were actively involved in genealogy. They were some of the first to HELP me with my family research back in the 1970s. They freely gave their time and information not only to me but many others as well. They were especially knowledgeable about the families and history of those from Campbell Township. Such as: Massey, Morrison, Sutterfield, Barnes, Martin, Mabrey, Branscum, Kuykendall, and many others families. Claudia we miss you and wish you the best. Errol Lewis

One of the more humorous stories I have heard about Searcy County genealogy concerns a school teacher from Dennard who taught social studies in Marshall. After receiving and grading a fifth grade class assignment to do their family trees she is reputed to have declared, "Why after three generations they were all copying off of each other." For us the lesson should be that there is bound to be someone in Searcy County kin to you who can help with the family tree (or whom you can help with the family tree.) Searcy Co.

The April issue of the "Searcy County Ancestor Information Exchange" is in the mail today. It has articles about "Old Lebanon", "Blanco", "Excerpts from the John W Lay" Federal Pension file, and an interesting piece about Morris/Morrison/Bradshaw/Davis. Also lots of queries from people who have renewed their subscription. JJJ

Dovie, The ledger will not be at the Ancestor Fair. A transcription of it appeared in a back issue of the "Searcy County Ancestor Information Exchange". Unless you want a copy of the original, I think I can provide a copy of the transcription. JJJ lloyd rose wrote: >Can you tell me if this ledger will be available at the ancestor fair this year?

Dovie, I do not know anything about this ledger, Maybe if you contact Claudia Massey at the address below she can help you. I don't know any thing about some of the family info I send out, just copied some things that I thought might help some one that came from the Ancestor Fair that James Johnston puts out.

Can you tell me if this ledger will be available at the ancestor fair this year? Is there someway we can get a copy of selected pages? Thanx Dovie Rose [email protected] wrote:Searcy Co Ancestor information Exchange by J.J. Johnston LEDGER FROM CAMPBELL COMMUNITY: Claudia Massey and husband Willie Lee Massey, HC 76, box 259, Marshall, AR 72650 have a business ledger which has also been used to keep a ledger of some births, deaths and marriages in the community. Claudia thinks that it must have belonged to Willie's family, possibly his grandfather Lewis C. Morrison. It was used as a business ledger in 1898. There are other notes about other things stuck in the ledger, and because we think it may be of interest we include all the non commercial items: R. P.

There is a John CARTER age 17 md Maggie ROUSE in 1909. Does that help? The marriage books are 1896-1905, 1905-1913, and I looked in both. There is a DAVIS, A.

Dortha, We have communicated before. I have Bradshaws who settled in the Boone/Marion cty areas. My great grandmother was Rutha P. Bradshaw b 1862. She married Franklin Pierce Richardson. He was a twin and one of ten children of David William Richardson and Catherine Melissa SATTERFIELD/SUTTERFIELD Richardson. They came from Greenville cty SC after moving to Walker Cty Georgia. My ggrandfather Franklin ( Frank in the Stone cty census in 1880 with Rutha and my grandmother--their oldest child), died in 1891, cause unknown. Ruth eventually married a Tracy (unk first) and had two children--I do have their names and DOBs. The Bradshaws came from NC and many still live their. We have much on these Bradshaw, thank to our cousin, John Bradshaw who has re- searched them from decades. If you need any more let me know. And thanks for asking.

Hello and Good Morning, I have done searches with microsoft word on the cd numerous times, it will work fine, however each file must be opened individually one at a time, or all at once, your choice. although I have an extremely fast computer and am able to open ALL of them at one time, there are alot of files, and this is not recommended, however, I only did it only to prevent missing any. if you choose to go this route, be prepared, it will take a bit of time to go through them all. especially if you are looking for more than one surname, or person (each one requires an additional search through) once the word files are open, I use the find feature, (ctrl + F) to locate the specific person, family, or name targeted. its a bummer, it is not possible to search all of the files at once, if anyone comes up with another method, please let me know. good luck and happy hunting Steven > [Original Message] > From: James Johnston <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Date: 4/23/2005 8:07:24 PM > Subject: Re: [ARSEARCY] Re: Looking for Horton and Winchester > > The CD is the first 10 years of the "Searcy County Ancestor Information > Exchange".

sounds like the kids gave their parents white hair even back then....

It sounds like I missed out on something I would not want to miss - where do you get the CD?

Can this CD be purchased>? Relda
