Kentucky RoomAn introduction to the Final Rolls of the Five Civilized Tribes
Join JP Johnson in the Kentucky Room for a brief introduction to the Final Rolls of the Five Civilized Tribes, known as the Dawes Final Rolls.
The Final Dawes Rolls and related records are some of the most heavily used records for researching membership in the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole Nations in Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma).
We'll walk through the process of finding the census cards, enrollment applications, land allotment jackets, and maps.
Registration limited and required.
