Beverly, Poarch Creek Indians can only be descended from certain Creek families, who received land reserves from the Federal government and a waiver on the requirement to travel to Oklahoma, as a reward for work done for the soldiers involved with the Creek removal. I am not a professional genealogist, nor even that knowledgeable about the subject, but there are people on this message board, who can tell you where the records are kept for determining if you had ancestor who was a "Poarch" Creek. Not being Poarch does not mean that you are not Creek. Many, many other Creek families stayed in the East because they were "Friendly" Creeks who received Veteran's land grants (like my Creek side), or that they were wealthy enough mixed bloods, where no one bothered them. Keep watching the message board and google web sites related to the Poarch Creeks for more info. Richard T. **************Looking for a car that's sporty, fun and fits in your budget?
