Does anyone have any information on James CUMMINS, I assume from Illinois, since his son, Henry Allen is listed as being born there. Notes from my nephew's research of the Bean family states that Henry was Choctaw. Were there Choctaws that far North? This is probably just the story of one family's travels. "14. Henry Allen Cummins, born July 1856 in Illinois; died Abt. 1911 in Hoyt, Haskell County. Oklahoma. He was the son of 28. JAMES CUMMINS and 29. Catherine Booth." I'm new to genealogy, and the mailing lists. I am in the process of searching the Choctaw Rolls at the Census Bureau's National Archives, but it's a slow process; their server is a little moody at times.
