Hi to All, I have aquestion about when the Dawes Roll terminated. I have both Cherokee Roots, Vols and they lest the Dawes Roll as 1898-1914.. My father was b. in 1905, a br. was born in 1906 and both have Dawes enrollment #s. They had another br. b.1908 and a sis. b. 1909. The last two are not on the Dawes. Some years ago, when my Aunt was still sharp she told me that Rolls had closed when the last two were born and that they were called "too laters". Neither of them received an allottment from the Cherokees but both have been recognized as 1/2 Cherokee. So, again my question is, Why does the Dawes show as running through 1914--- and the Guion Miller shows it runs through 1909!! which would have included my uncle b. in 1908. I do not believe that my Grandparents would have not enrolled all of their children .TIA Keith Lowrey.
