Lee I don't have copies of the Lusk applications - using the application numbers you can order copies from the National Archives or locate a library that has ALL the microfilm. It has always been one of my "genealogy dreams" to view all 1700 applications but the way the application numbers run you would need access to all the films. My Cherokee research started because of my materal ancestors who lived near the reservation in N.C. My paternal ancestors(Hammonds-Mullens-Roberts) were in Wyoming County and never made any claims. I did send for the Mullens who made application from WV most of those try to go back to the Sizemores. So I have an odd collection but by no means a complete collection of these applications; they certainly are a great genealogy tool used in conjunction with additional research.
