Oh yeah, she had a brother named Henry, and two sisters: Elsie and Eve. My family tree is not complete without more info on Stella.

Query: Searching for information on Mary E Riley. Mary (1/16 Cherokee) married William Roberts on 1 Aug 1885. They had 4 children: James T. Roberts, William E. Roberts Jr., Charles A. Roberts & Floyd B. Roberts. In the application for enrollment in the Cherokee tribe he mentions that he had been married to another Cherokee woman. I am searching for the name of that Cherokee women, when and where they were married and the names of their children. My grandmother, Elizabeth Roberts' father was William Roberts born in NC. Since Elizabeth was born in 1965, her mother would probably be the other Cherokee women listed in the application. Any information would be appreciated. Wado

Thomas
Query: I am looking for any helpful information a great grandmother of mine who was said to have been a full blooded Cherokee. Her name was "Dora Bell Place", the last name was changed earlier at some point and was originally "Treeplace". She married a man by the name of Jon Bishop. I believe she was born in 1896. Her mothers name was Eliza Jones and fathers name Alan Asby Place. I have no social security numbers and I doubt any of the before mentioned had any. If anyone could give me a little insight on how to research further without a social security number I would sure appreciate it. Also, does the Cherokee roll ist names or just a number? If a number, how do you trace the persons name to the number? Thanks for your help friends!
