I did. And I sent off for the census card, but was a little disappointed in that only a few documents were sent, though several names were on the census. Names I need dates for are Gibson Going, Sokey Going Sealy Going....and Flora Alexander's family and connection to Cherokee Nation. Anyone else researching these names? MCR, names were Pyle's, and all I found out is that they didn't get accepted on Dawes. Any info You have would be appreciated. Carla
