Chief Joseph One Star had to have been included in the census, somewhere, sometime. It is probably a near impossible task to find him with what little I know about him. However, just in case... He professed (and there is no reason to doubt it) to have been an Oklahoma Cherokee. His wife, Ada Mary URIAN, later was buried in Gloucester City, Camden County, NJ, as Ada M. One Star. SSDI lists her as Ada Onestar (one word). Joseph attended Carlisle Indian School, and that would have put him in Pennsylvania. During the later 1940's, he was in Blue Anchor, NJ. But likely for 1930, he would have been in Pennsylvania - most likely Bucks County. He lived: September 17, 1900 until August 19, 1957. At one point, perhaps in the 1950's, he lived in or near Haycock Mountain. With Ben SURKET possibly. My guess, then, as to how to find him, say for 1930, would be to search for someone: Born OK. Native American. Given Name: Joseph. Aged 29-30. Location: PA - Bucks If anyone can find him, it would be too, too much! Thanks, Vince Summers
Vince, I think I found a most interesting possibility Bucks County, PA Morrisville Joseph E. Mayer, age 30 - PA-England(there is something written on top that I can not read)-England Ada May (or Mary), age 33 - PA-PA-PA Claire, age 6 3/12 - PA-PA-PA He worked on the RR doing Electrical work. After finding this family I checked to see the age of Ada in the SSDI and low and behold she was born in 1897 - making her 3 years older than Joseph One Star. So I ask you is it a coincidence that the Joseph and Ada found in Bucks County in 1930 are 3 years apart with Ada being 3 years old - or what? I think this could be who you are looking for! I'll send the image..... Regina >From: "Vincent E.
