My spouse's family are from Kentucky, but am not sure where to start the search to see if his relatives are actually listed on any of the rolls.

If you would like me to take a look, post your great great grandma's name and I will see what I can find concerning this.<br />CCTwilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17089424926707904002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193206024924903477.post-45927521821459336542011-01-27T21:45:46.953-06:002011-01-27T21:45:46.953-06:00Do you have any information on the accuracy of blo...Do you have any information on the accuracy of blood percentage given on the rolls? I've been told my whole life that my great great grandmother was full-blood, but she and her sisters appear on the Dawes Roll as 1/8. Her father is listed as 1/8 as well which doesn't entirely make sense. I've heard that it wasn't necessarily a good thing to be "full blood", but I can't imagine someone proud of their heritage saying they were anything less.JessiRaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03748316440116683035noreply@blogger.com
