I am wondering if the Richard Wright listed on the DAWES Rolls as a Cherokee Freedman is one and the same? My mother states that Elizabeth was Cherokee Indian. Does anyone know if these are the same man or perhaps different ones altogether? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
