How do you know that his "original" name was Elijah Crabtree? When did he change his name to Jerry Williams and why? And, upon what basis do you know that either one or the other was "full blood" Choctaw? Where was he (or, seeing as how we aren't really sure) or she was born? And when? Where did he/she die? Why did they die? Where were they interred? Mo info, ya know? "gc-gateway@rootsweb.com" <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> wrote: This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

My sister in law's Grandfather was Elijah Crabtree born in 1892. He changed his name to Jerry Williams. His Mother was a Delcuff. He died in 1970 or 72. Either his mother or father was a full blooded Choctaw. Can anyone help us? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
