When using Heritage Quest and Ancestry online census, search the index using the surname "INDIAN". I have yet to read an explanation why the enumerator was instructed to do this, as on at least one of the census years, 1910, those enumerated under the surname INDIAN had both first and last names on the census pages. This is the only reference on Ancestry : "There were separate Indian population schedules for 1910 in which the tribe and/or band was also recorded" On Ancestry, there is a little yellow symbol next to the "INDIAN" surnames on the search results pages, but no explanation as to it's meaning.
