Unfortunately, my father doesn't remember their names. Could be your family?

Faye, The 1890 Cherokee Census has the same schedules as the 1880 including Schedule 6 that lists whites living there under permit. The problem is that they list only heads of household, age, race or nationality, sex, employer, number in family and date of arrival in the Nation. It doesn't include other family members. There are records of people that had permits to be in Indian Territory but, like the census do not include other family members.
