She has her birth as being Joplin, Jasper CO., MO. Her father was called Dharley Walker born 1856 MI, mother unknown as she died when my mother was born. When mother wrote for her birth certificate , they told her the records we burnt and they had know record for her. But would give her a new one if she could prove her birth , so her half siter helped her get her certificate. Mother gave her mother to LDS church as Elizabeth Jane ? but that was my father's grandmother's name. I don't even know how to conferm her real name and birthdate as mother changed her name, when she applied for a new one. She changed her middle name to Evelyn.Her father was swedish and mother Cherokee we think.Father's name was Charles Russell Walker from Michigan. I can't even conferm that. Except in 1900 he was listed as Charley Walker with! a women claiming to be his wife ,but she was a cousin , and they had a daughter that they named Katie Jane Walker. Mother had 2 older brother's but they are not listed. We know this is true as one lived with mom and dad after they were married in 1915.He had fits and died from one while living with them. If we could break this brick wall we could find her family. But first need to find out about reservation in Missouri.Thank You for letting me add my search with your's . Shirley
