My grandmother Nora Subrina Elks b. 1879 Ky. and her family lived in these area's...........
Tenn, Fulton Ky, East. Praire Mo, Greene Co. Ark. and finally Muskegon Michigan.

Just wanted to suggest to all of you ELKS researchers, that you check the counties closest to the Mississippi River, because they didn't all put down roots....they followed the work, and most of the work was along the river.

also check the Dawes rolls....on pages
239 to 437 Cherokees by Blood
438 to 469 Minor Cherokees by Blood
469 to 470 Delaware Cherokees
470 to 472 Cherokee's by Intermarriage
473 to 498 Cherokee Freedmen
498 to 502 Minor Cherokees
