Louise Taylor--and it says under her parent's birthplace: Full Blood Choctaw. It also has some numbers. Now, I know that numbers above or next to a name on a ship manifest for someone who immigrated to this country means something about their naturalization...so, what I am wondering is if the numbers above Louise's parent's birthplace means something about their tribal rolls? Like they went and verified it? There is a 43-5 above where her father's birthplace is listed and there is an 83 above Louise's birthplace of Mississippi. And what would be the best site to search for her in the tribal rolls...ancestry's roll search isn't very good. Angela

Angela, hi. This is about as good a source for most all the "rolls" that I have found: http://www.accessgenealogy.com/native/dawes.php Larry "That Darn Indian" "They made us many promises, more than I can remember, and they kept only one. They promised to take away our land and they did."
