Seeking how to obtain citizenship of tribe

Hi Loretta,

Welcome to History Hub

There are 85 people with the last name of Richards on the Dawes Rolls but no Nellie.

Did she use any other name?

Search the Dawes Final Rolls | OHS (okhistory.org)

Dear Ms. Graham,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

We suggest that you check the Cherokee Tribal Registration website at https://www.cherokee.org/all-services/tribal-registration/ for how to obtain citizenship.

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
