Hi: There is an 1890 census for Oklahoma and it is online. Check http://www.ok-history.mus.ok.us/lib/1890/1890index.htm There is a George L. Roosa listed in Oklahoma County born NY on page 509. This site is so helpful in finding those who came here in the "Run of 1889". Sincerely, Jean Kyle

Hello, List! I wanted to let you know that we have added many names (and are still adding more) to the Covey/Rosencutter Cemetery just west of Jenks (Tulsa County), Oklahoma! We'd love for you to check this page and see if you might find some of your ancestors there! We're also going to be adding pictures to this site as time goes on and of course, keep up with regular updates. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kinfolkkorner/COVEYCEM.html Have a great week! Blessings, Susan Strain <>< "Kinfolk "Korner"

If you are looking for a Cherokee citizen, even if they married white, they will be in the information for Cherokee Nation if they lived there. The white spouse will be included in any census. Depending on when they were married, she could possibly be on a roll as Roosa................you might look to see if her children are on the Guion Miller Rolls...........check the index...............also

Remember that information on a death certificate is only as good as the memory of the informant........or the knowledge.

I will look through my catalog and recomend the film you should rent........if you like you can email me personally........I have done a lot of research in Indian Territory sandra

Check the census for Cherokee's in Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory.........Indian Rolls for her..........There are a lot of microfilm for Cherokee Nation,Indian Territory that you can rent at the local LDS family history center........

The George Roosa in Clay Co. Missouri was my great grandfather... my grandmother was 7 mo. old at that time :) And the Earnest in Sherman TX was also my great-great grandfather, he and his brother Aldelbert both went to Oklahoma and married Cherokee women from the same territory. I hadn't thought about the death certificate... my grandmother says that George died in 1933 in Kansas City, MO so I will try that avenue next.. I didn't know they listed parents on the death certificates... thank you! You guys are great! Kerri :)

Hello all! I am new to the group and very glad to be here! I'm not sure if y'all can help me or not... here's my dilemma... My great-grandfather George Leon Roosa was born in Oklahoma in about 1891. His father was Earnest Eugene Roosa. Earnest had married a Cherokee lady but I don't know her name (this was George's mother). I am trying to find out her name and who she was. Her last name would have been Roosa. She died when George was very young, and I am told she died in a fire.My grandmother tells me that he never talked about her so he was probably too young to remember her. Now my problem is that the Vital Statistics dept. said they don't have birth certificates for that early, and the census was burned for 1890 so I can't even see where they lived then. I know Earnest eventually left Oklahoma because the rest of my family (grandmother, mother, me, etc.) was born in Missouri, and I have him there on the 1930 census. Because of my lack of information, I don't even know what county to begin looking in! I guess my question is this... since my great-great grandmother was Cherokee, but was married to a white man, did they all bury their dead in the same cemetery? I mean, should I be looking in specific cemeteries for Cherokees? Since my grandfather was born in 1891, I am assuming she died betweeen 1891-1900, probably towards the earlier 1890's. Were the Cherokees more inclined to live in certain counties than others? Because I have zero information, ANY info anyone might have would be VERY much appreciated!! Thanks! Kerri Barrett :)

Hi Tammy & Bob: I just looked over the Sunnylane Cemetery, 11 South records that have been posted. Could you please correct the spelling of their last name. My parents are Wiley and E. Maxine MOONEYHAM. Located S11S-R11-4&5. You're all doing a great job. Thanks for your help.

While it is true that not all info on death certs is correct, when you have no other info, it is a good place to start. (I should know about incorrect info on death certs. I put the wrong surname for my grandmother on my father's death cert.) Lois in Auburn, CA

Hi Kerri... Here is where you can get info about Kansas death certificates and other Kansas vital records: http://vitalrec.com/ks.html Good luck! Lois in Auburn, CA

Try Clay Co, MO. At ancestry.com, I found a George Roosa, age 27, b. OK in Gallatin township, Clay Co, MO in 1920 census. In the 1880 census records at LDS, I found an Earnest E. ROOSA, b. 1873 in MN. Father was Leo L. ROOSA, b. NY, mother (not named) also b. NY. They were in Sherman, Grayson Co, TX. When searching for your great grandmother, remember that her surname would not be ROOSA. That was your great grandfather's surname. She took his name when they married; however, you will not find birth info under that surname. If George was born in about 1891, do you know when and where he died? If you could get a copy of his death certificate, that should provide you with some details about his parents...names and places of birth. Good luck and happy hunting! Lois in Auburn, CA

Thank you. Some one else gave me that info as well.

There is one individual in this cemetery who has two stones for his name. Infomation on both markers are identical. I've never seen that before. I don't remember the name. I'll have to check wwiith my husband and see if he has it on video tape. We both thought that was curious. Becky Dreger.
