The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma is the largest of three federally recognized tribes and boasts more than 400,000+ citizens. Many claim ties to the tribe through oral history, yet confirming connections can be challenging. This session will feature the steps to take to verify potential ties to the tribe and the wealth of information that exists beyond the Dawes Rolls.. Registration is required and closes one hour prior to the start of the program. Participants will be emailed a Zoom access code the day of the program. Please include your email in the registration. Please note: You must sign into the room prior to the start of the program. Admittance to the classroom will close five minutes after the program's start time. All start times are Central Standard Time.
