Hi: I am looking for family information, my grandmother Cora Etta Morris was a member of the Choctaw Tribe, she was born in San Antonio TX in 1884, I believe she is included on an enrollment card from Skullyville in 1896-1900. Would anybody have information on this Morris family. Thank you, Thelma at tlewis@mcn.net

Send the enrollment number along with the census card number to the National Archives in Ft. Worth, Texas and they will send you the information they have. There is a fee, $15.00, I think. You will have to look up the address. Regards, /////////// Carl Kelli Staples wrote: > I'm looking at a Dawes Enrollment Card. There is a heading "Tribal > Enrollment."

I'm looking at a Dawes Enrollment Card. There is a heading "Tribal Enrollment." Under it it lists year, county, and No. On this card under that it lists 1896, Tobucksy, 5335. Was this a tribal enrollment in 1896 in Tobucksy county. If so, where could I find this enrollment? Thanks, Kelli in Arkansas (kmstapl@hotmail.com)

You letter is of interest to me because my great grand-parents came from GA and NC to Bosque County , TX about the same time as yours. They settled in Stiner Valley. My grandparents were married in Bosque County in 1889. Some of my ancestors are;Cline, Daniel, Burton, Reed, and Newton. These are the names I know of. My dad Claude Cline was born in the Indian Nation (Reener, OK) in 1904.

Those that elected to stay in Mississippi and comply with the provisions of Articles 14 of the 1830 Treaty were granted US citizenship. See following: ARTICLE XIV. Each Choctaw head of a family being desirous to remain and become a citizen of the States, shall be permitted to do so, by signifying his intention to the Agent within six months from the ratification of this Treaty, and he or she shall thereupon be entitled to a reservation of one section of six hundred and forty acres of land, to be bounded by sectional lines of survey; in like manner shall be entitled to one half that quantity for each unmarried child which is living with him over ten years of age; and a quarter section to such child as may be under 10 years of age, to adjoin the location of the parent. If they reside upon said lands intending to become citizens of the States for five years after the ratification of this Treaty, in that case a grant in fee simple shall issue; said reservation shall include the present improvement of the head of the family, or a portion of it. Persons who claim under this article shall not lose the privilege of a Choctaw citizen, but if they ever remove are not to be entitled to any portion of the Choctaw annuity.

David- The reason the decision was reversed was because they did not live in Indian Territory. Although I may be wrong. I have read that Choctaw had to be living in Indian Territory to be granted citizenship. Maybe someone on the list can back this up.

I have recently learned my grandmother may have bee 1/2 Indian. She was born in Mt Pleasant, Texas in 1872. Her maiden name was Harris. She married Sam Calwell in 1891. Thier first childs name was Bowd Caldwell. I have been told he was contacted about some land, in about 1962, that he might have heirship too. Is there anyone out there that can help me to see if any Caldwell were on any of the Roll calls?

Hello everyone, Boy, we sure have a lot of subscribers to this list, over 170, more than I thought there would be, but would like to say I think it is great. Now if we all could just find our ancestors, that would be even greater. Anyway, since we have a lot of new subscribers, I am suggesting that we have a Roll Call. For those of you that are new to mailing lists, it means to post/send a message to the list of who or what you are looking for pertaining to your Choctaw ancestors who came to Oklahoma. Please include as much information as you possibly can/have such as dates and places. The more information you put in the message, the more someone may be able to help you.

Looking for Syllen DURANT TAYLOR arrived in Lukfata on Dec.10,1852. She had in her company her sons Alex, Jackson, Solomon, her widowed daughter, Elizabeth Corsey and her two children, William and Mary Ann. Also, a grandaughter named Eviline or Emeline, who was not Elizabeth's. They settled in Nashoba County. I can find no trace of Syllen and the boys after the 1855 census. Syllen's husband preceded her to IT by several years and I can find no trace of him either. Carl in Hangtown http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/4723/HOMEPAGE.HTM

I have only a scant bit of information on my family. They are my brickwall. My gggrandparents Dolsa PILGRIM and Mode JOHNSON. Dolsa was the Native American. My family has always said that she was Cherokee, but I'm beginning to believe that she may well have been Choctaw. As far as I can tell she never lived in Indian or Oklahoma Territory, she was always in MS either Neshoba or Kemper Co. I have her daughter's death certificate and it says her mother was from Alabama. I have this much information on Dolsa & Mode's children (I have to assume there were more given the gap in age between Dolsa and Charles). Children of Dolsa PILGRIM and Mode JOHNSON: 1. Dolsa Johnson b. 10 Nov. 1863 in Kemper Co. MS 2. Charles Johnson b. May 1874 in MS 3. Mode Johnson b. Feb. 1875 in MS 4. Bettie Johnson b. Oct. 1878 in MS 5. John A. Johnson b. Dec. 1880 in MS I don't know where or when their parents died. I don't know where or when they were born other than they were from AL. I am guessing that they were born something around 1840. I do know that their daughter Dolsa went to Philadelphia, Neshoba Co. to be married in August of 1884 to Jeff Davis Hudnall. I'm told that the Kemper county courthouse had burned down so folks were going to Philadelphia to be married. I thought it might have something to do with being Choctaw, but guess not. I have written to both Neshoba and Kemper Co. libraries and courthouses for information on them, but it has turned up nothing. I'm lost.....thanks for listening, well reading. Vickie L. Carter - HUDNALL / JOHNSON / PILGRIM / TROTTER / PALOMARES / CARTER / CAVANAUGH / BURKHEAD / COSEY /

Dear Cousins All: My Choctaw heritage begins with: John Jackson Smith (b. 1799 South Carolina d. Bosque Co., Texas 1867) and Martha JONES (b. abt 1801) who is said to have been 3/4 Choctaw They had eleven children, all born in Choctaw areas and/or cessions in Mississippi. They did NOT go west with the majority of the tribe(s) in the 1830s since John Jackson Smith was an Indian Agent and stayed behind. The family apparently emigrated to Texas right after the Civil War along with most (but not all) of the children. While a resident of Hill County, Texas, grandson Burton Smith Burks applied for Choctaw Citizenship in 1896 and it was granted to him and his children. I have all the documentation from the Dawes Commission. The Choctaw nation sued him and the decision was reversed without any clear explanation in the documentation. Many family members later moved to Garvin Co., Oklahoma, where my grandfather Carl Self was born in the small community of Antioch in 1906.
