Hi Russ, You need form 84 from the Bureau of Land Managment. Send me your address, and I will mail you a copy of the form and a neat paper on how to research Federal Land Records, from the Family History Library in SLC where I am a librarian. There's no charge for these things - we answer correspondence all the time anyway.

Dear Russell, How would I go about finding out where the closest branch is? I apologize for taking so long to reply, but I have had the care of our grandchildren all weekend, and thought I would have more time to myself, but that was out of the question!

You can see the Dawes Rolls: Choctaws & Creek Indians and some other tribes as well, very easily by visiting most any local "Federal Archives" Branch location! The first microfilm roll is often held at the reference desk (it its the "surname index roll"). I think they have the Miller Rolls there too! I believe it was some years ago (about 1979) these records where closed up (for privacy)? But, whatever that was about; I am uncertain? You can see them freely now however!

I know that my John Riddle was part Indian. We have always been under the impression that he was Cherokee. I have not sent off for any solid information from the Dawes Rolls, or Millers Rolls. But I do have John's application numbers and his wife, Sarah Lundry's application numbers. I also remember that the BIA advised me in a letter that if they moved off the Indian property, they somehow lost their rights as Indians, that is. I have not attempted to get the proof, as the BIA wants proof of ancestry, which I do not have. I know certain facts, as they are proven. This is by marriage licenses, and by lore handed down to relatives that can still show us the right graves, and most of what they have said has panned out as truth. Maybe a couple of years off, but still the truth. Census reports have also proven ancestry. But when our John Riddle moved to Missouri, and then one of his sons (the only one we know about) moves down to Randolph County, Arkansas, this is where the proof is lost. The original court house burned down, and my grandmother could never prove when she was born, or to whom she was born. I now have a picture of my g-g-grandfather, thanks to a new cousin (Erv Riddle), and he does look like an Indian. Many have said he looks full-blooded Cherokee. My scanner is on the blitz, so I cannot scan this picture and put it on the net. Wish I could. There is also a picture of Meredith's daughter, Aunt Jennie Riddle White. She definitely does not look like an Indian! Or at least not to me. So, if anyone has a way to check the Dawes Rolls without proving ancestry or saying to which tribe or clan of which tribe, let me know. I will find those numbers again, and we can ascertain what the records say about this Riddle branch.

Hello List! One other question perhaps somebody can answer since I know there are some well seasoned researchers here. Where can I obtain/ write to get a copy of a land certificate in ORANGE County Texas? I found a reference to on at an internet site. But as how to pursue? Thanks again, Russ

Hi Loretta1125@msn.com, I was there in the TN Archives in Nashville two weeks ago, and found good information in what the librarians call the "Vertical File". These are file folders organized by family surname. They are indexed in the card file at the back of the room with all the TN county books in it. Check it out! There is also a good set of family cards in the manuscript room at the other end of the building on the main floor, in the drawers on the far left side of the Manuscript Card Catalog. Check your surnames out there too! Good luck, Mary Hill At 08:12 PM 7/11/1999 -0500, you wrote: >Hi - am making a trip to Nashville, Tn. to the State Archives and if anyone >would like for me to look up a certain name, I will try to do it while Im >down there this week....Ive been following the Wm.

On the ancestral file from Salt Lake, there a family: George Riddle-b. abt 1765-Sussex County, New Jersey-d.? Mary Ayers-b. abt. 1765-d. 1819- Sussex County, NJ seven children all born in Alleghany County, MD- ( caught our eye Maryland) Jane -1785, SAMUEL- 1789, Polly-1791, Dorcas-1792, Michael-1793, Elizabeth-1795, and then a Moses Ayers Riddle listed in 1787 SAMUEL is shown as marrying a Nancy Swick in 1890 in MD but no children are shown...perhaps she died and he remarried Anna Clarvo? The ancestral file goes on with Mary Ayer's family but nothing more about George. Our (Sue Larson & Mike Conners) Samuel's age fits abt 1790?.....it's a thought!!! Can anyone add to this or??

Riddler's, I have been skimming thru my copies of "The Riddle, Reddell, Ruddle Trail" by Nettie Lee Benson. If you are "new" at your search for Riddle's etc. or have never seen any of these newsletters, published for about 10 years before the death of Nettie. The compiling of info from all the states where Riddle's or found is well worth the $59 for the reprint from www.higginsonbooks.com Many of the Riddle lines some of you have been discussing are compiled in Nettie's newsletters. I imagine some of our best researchers like Mary Hill, Richard (Dick) Riddle and Jack Goins know of the useful info contained in them. I am not trying to "sell" the new book just think it could help some of you. Keep in mind Nettie's last addition was in 1990.

Hello Riddle Group, I hate to bother everyone but I tried to unsubscribe from the group but my message was returned undeliverable. What address do you send the message to? I think the address I used was out of date. I am still available by direct e-mail if someone has a specific question I can help with. Thanks, David Wilkerson dwilker@ix.netcom.com .com
