    1. Re: [CHOCTAW] For Sherry and all
    2. Sherry: I figured it fruitless to try for enrollment. The main thing I am interested in is finding information about James Knox Bowman and Lucy Jane Tanner Smallwood. That little tidbit of census info suggesting she was Choctaw led us made us hope to find some info here. James was said to have started a school in Carter Co. area for his and other area children and hired a teacher. That would have been probably in the early 1890s. Would that mean there were no other schools in the area or mixed blood children were not welcome in the established ones? Jean
