ROLL INFORMATION
1832 Creek Census
~  By a treaty of March 24, 1832, the Creek Indians ceded to the United States all of their land east of the Mississippi River. Heads of families were entitled to tracts of land, which, if possible, were to include their improvements. In 1833 Benjamin S. Parsons and Thomas J. Abbott prepared a census of Creek Indian heads of families, which gave their names and the number of males, females, and slaves in each family. The entries were arranged by town and numbered; these numbers were used for identification in later records.
1924 Baker Roll
~ 1924
History  Cherokee Indians
This was supposed to be the final roll of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.  The land was to be allotted and all were to become regular citizens of the United States.  Fortunately the Eastern Band of Cherokee avoided the termination procedures, unlike their brothers of the western nation.  The Baker Roll "Revised" is the current membership roll of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians of North Carolina.

1971 Creek Census

The Census is not all-inclusive of everyone on roll, it only lists those who applied for the entitlement. The number of applicant's exceeds 50,000.
Campbell's Abstract of Creek and Creek Freedmen
~ These records presented are the first effort at cross-indexing, the purpose being to locate the different members of any particular family. The indexing has been made with great care, and we have not been content with indexing under the name as spelled on the card, but have, in many instances, indexed under two, three and even four different spellings. An examination of the card itself will show the necessity for this. The same names have on these records been spelled many different ways, in fact, in many cases the same name appearing twice on the same card will be spelled differently, and we have sought by this index to cover all such discrepancies, and in cases where doubt may exist, we have indexed so as to cover both ends of the doubt. Where different members of families spell their names differently, we have likewise covered both ways of spelling.

This commission to the Five Civilized Tribes became known as the Dawes Commission, after Senator Henry L. Dawes, who was largely responsible for the legislation that brought it into being. their main task was to make an equitable division of nearly twenty million acres of land among more that 100,000 Indians. Several years of negotiation and pressure on the Indians were required to secure their assent to this proposal.
