You need to do the research to locate what ancestor is on the dawes roll. Once you have all the documentation that the tribe requires then you submit it all to the tribe for their consideration. There is no guarantee that you will be accepted so don't get your hopes up. If you can't find your ancestor on the dawes and provide all the documentation then don't even try submitting to the tribal offices.<br><b>References : </b><br> First of all I will say if you are in this search for the money forget it.

There are histories, deeds, cencus' , cemetary records. There are also several links on the page to "how tos" and places to search out the Native American Heritage. Not everythong is free, but everything I've looked at so far has been. Gather all of the information you can, then go to the tribal officials. It is not easy but don't give up.
