In 1904 the Eastern Cherokees won a million dollar judgment against
the U.S. because of its violations of the treaties of 1835-36 and
1845. The payments were to go to all living persons who had been
members of the Cherokee tribe at the time of the treaties, or to
their descendants if they were deceased. Over 46,000 people filed
claims. This series presents detailed abstracts of those
applications including numerous verbatim transcriptions of
affidavits by the applicants, their families and friends. Since
most of the applications were descendants, and had to prove their
descent, the quantity of genealogical data in these volumes is
impressive.
