I forsure found my great great grandmother listed in the Dawes roll (cherokee). I is definitely her because my cousin needed her information and found the same name, ssn, ect,, and now she is claiming benefits. only problem here is..I AM AFRICAN AMERICAN AND THE NAME IS LISTED AS WHITE.... I heard that it was a conspiracy back then and for some reason, some indians were listed under different races. So my problem here is, will I not be able to do this because she's listed under another race, but she wasn't white (i met her later on before she passed away)? My cousin wont help me because she became SUPER stuck up when she got her benefits so she will help no one (shes a b*****)
