Appreciate all the great help concerning the census in Indian Territory. Penny Peace found my Thompsons still in MO in 1880. They had removed to OK Indian Territory by 1883 because James Wyman Thompson, son to Alexander and Martha is reported to have been born at Ft. Gibson Indian Territory 1883. What type records were there for the next census year which would have been 1890 for the Indian Territory? James Wyman was grandfather to my husband. Would like to place him on record somewhere with Alexander and Martha. Again, much thanks to everyone. Faye Heffington
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.
